So What Do You Think Are My Chances?

<p>So, one of my friends got accepted to Barnard, but she was ED. We have the same SAT score, but her GPA is a 97 and mine is a 93 (same ability, but she works harder than I do =P). Plus she was absolutely in love with this school. She went to the pre-college thing and her essay was about it and whatever. Still, I’m wondering if I have a chance because we are pretty similar students and go to the same school. </p>

<p>Obviously I know you can’t really make a call based on that, but I figured it might help as an indicator. Here are my stats:</p>

<p>GPA: 93
SAT: 2030 (740v, 600m, 690w)
SAT II: 700 Biology, 640 American
ECs: 4 years of Drama club at my school and two at another, Treasurer of my school’s drama club
4 years Varsity Swim Team
Vice-president of Spanish Club
A few others like Piano and Voice Lessons and officer of the Animal Rights Club my friend (same one that got into Barnard) started
150+ Service hours
8 APs, with 3’s, 4’s and 5’s on the 4 tests I’ve already taken.
National Merit Commended Student and AP Scholar with Honor.</p>

<p>Yeah, Barnard is one of the only schools I applied to that I feel is a high reach, so I was wondering if you guys who have been accepted ED or are more familiar with the school think I have a shot. I’m a white girl from NYC, btw, so my nationality will not be helping me out at all either.</p>

<p>ED, it's much easier to get into Barnard.</p>

<p>RD, the expectations rise. Your GPA is pretty strong but your SAT scores are a little low. your M should be higher - the other two are fine, though.</p>
