So I Need A Little Advice

<p>I know I have another chance thread going, but I'm letting that one fade. There's 6 certain universities that I want to know my chances for. I plan on doing an undergrad in business.</p>

<p>These universities are:
NYU and its Stern School of Business
Carnegie Melon and its Tepper School of Business
Georgetown and its McDonough School of Business
Emory University
Notre Dame
USC and its Marshall School of Business</p>

<p>GPA
GPA Unweighted- 3.85 as of now on a A= 4 B=3... scale. It would go up to a 3.87-3.89 by the time I applied if I maintained my grades</p>

<p>SAT
Overall- 2250
Composite- 1560
CR- 790
M- 770
CW- 690</p>

<p>Award: National Merit Commended</p>

<p>Rank
9/118- top 10%</p>

<p>Extracurriculars:
1. First Robotics Competition (nationwide robotics competition) [2 years by graduation 1 when I apply]
2. Debate Club (school's debate club, we frequently hold in school debates. This isn't just a grocery list ec, because its given me a time to discuss current events and see how my peers feel. I could defend in my essay) [2 years by graduation 1 when I apply]
3. NHS
4. Job Shadowing Professionals In Their Work Environments (40+ Hours by graduation, explained below)
5. YES Camp (spent a week in this camp hosted by the international Art Of Living Foundation learning leadership qualities)
I might be getting a part time job tutoring kids.</p>

<p>Volunteering:
1. Reagan Wells Ranch Community Service (spent a week of my summer rebuilding a ranch for the International Human Rights Organization)
2. Interact Club (part of the national rotary organization, does service projects: 2 local and 1 international)
3. Community Service Club
4. Children's Hospital Community Service (spend a month of my summer, its like a part time job nearly, need a uniform, 5 days a week, and you have to go through an application rpocess and be recommended)</p>

<p>The school I go too is a part of the New Tech foundation. They emphasize a new type of approach where students are familiarized with an authentic work environment. Our work centers heavily around presentations, professionalism, becoming acquainted with the uses of technology in today's world, and of course normal high school content. I took one ap class freshmen year and the rest honors. I took all honors classes sophmore year and now 3 aps and the rest honors junior year. Depending on how many APs are provided during my senior year, I will have atleast 4 AP classes done by the time I graduate. When I graduate, I will also have 40+ hours of experience shadowing people in their jobs. This program was implemented to give us a visual view of the real world.</p>

<p>The New Tech School was opened in my district when I was going to be a sophmore, so I will be a part of its first graduating class. I wasn't involved in any major clubs over at the other high school during my freshman year, and when I went to New Tech. there weren't many clubs. I've gotten involved in ec's mostly in junior year, because the opportunities have presented themselves.</p>

<p>I have the scores and the grades, but so do a lot of other kids. My extracurriculars aren't numerous, but I can speak for them. They do take up a decent amount of time. My big thing is volunteering. I don't have several different things, but everything that I do have is solid. I can talk about how they have influenced me. Overall though, I know my ec's don't rank up to other peoples. So what are my chances for these universities?</p>

<p>77 views and no responses from anyone else</p>

<p>You are definitely in at Emory, ND, and Georgetown. USC is a probably.</p>

<p>Carnegie Mellon and NYU are high matches, but I would be surprised if you didn’t get in.</p>

<p>Best of luck.</p>

<p>Why didn’t you apply to Berkeley or UPenn? Haas and Wharton are stellar.</p>

<p>I forgot to add berkeley to that list, but I’m applying to it for sure. I don’t think I really have a chance for Upenn.</p>

<p>Bump…</p>

<p>You’re OOS, but I still thing you have a really good shot at Berkeley.</p>

<p>Love Cal…go Bears!</p>

<p>Yeah berkeley is one of those ideal colleges for me.</p>
