Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>thx for answering. I’m a closet atheist (parents are super-fundamentalist christians). I always become curious when I see things like that, even though it’s not my buisness :)</p>

<p>Your scores are great, I think that wherever you get in you’ll be happy with yourself. If you want to see if you improve, take the SAT again, but I wouldn’t worry about it. From what I’ve heard, top schools like these put all the good scores (which you have) in a pile then look for an interesting person. Again, g’luck!</p>

22

<p>Ah, it’s always great to see my competition :p. Good resume: scores, EC’s (could use some focus), and GPA/rank…You’ll be fine, just distinguish yourself on the essay (well don’t cause I want some of those schools) but if you MUST do something…do that :).</p>

<p>collegebound612 - I’ve been an open atheist since 6th grade. Because of this, my super-conservative parents (who are reform Jews because they’re lazy) had me get a bar mitzvah in Israel. The country was awesome; the religion was not. My parents still think that atheism is just a phase. Thank you for your kind words! I signed up for the December SAT just to try and bring my score over the 2200 mark. I feel that it has a nice psychological effect.</p>

<p>Black’s Law - I don’t see myself in competition with anybody else. I see myself as competing to match what the admissions counselors deem is a student that would fit in at their school. I don’t mean to be argumentative, but you said that I should focus my ECs. I think that I can focus in on a few of the key ones (seeing as stuff like music and baseball have literally changed my life). I was merely listing them all out there for feedback. Good luck to both of us!</p>

<p>I’m bumping this like an infant bumps his head.</p>

25

<p>Ivies are ivies, but they seem like low reaches to me. UF, Rollins and NYU= IN! GL</p>

26

<p>Thank you very much!</p>

27

<p>Anyone else? All comments are appreciated.</p>

28

<p>You will get in to Princeton, that’s my guess.
You could have mentioned in your first post that your mom does interviews for them, LOL.</p>

29

<p>Princeton (legacy) - Low Reach
Harvard - Reach
Yale - Reach
Columbia - Low Reach
UPenn - Low Reach
Georgetown - High Match
Stanford - Reach
WashU at St. Louis - High Match
UNC Chapel Hill - Match
UMich Ann Arbor - Match

<p>You have a fantastic shot at any of these schools, disregarding the complete unpredictability of HYPS. However, I think your legacy status will help you at Princeton, and as for everything aside from HYS, I think you have an extremely good chance of admission, if not 100%.</p>

<p>I also liked the reference in your title.</p>

31

<p>This title was misleading.</p>

32

<p>^^ Wow yes. I was looking through the Chances, and this title sure caught my eye. Good job OP. </p>

<p>Okay, here are my thoughts on your chances:</p>

<p>You are looking really good. </p>

<p>Princeton (legacy) - Match- legacy helps a lot
Harvard - Unpredictable, but you have good shot
Yale - Unpredictable, but you have a good shot
Columbia - More lenient than H or Y, good chance
UPenn - Same as Columbia
Georgetown - not that familiar with Georgetown admissions
Stanford - Unpredictable, but you have a good shot
WashU at St. Louis - Unpredictable, but you have a good shot
UNC Chapel Hill - Very good chance
UMich Ann Arbor - Very good chance
NYU - Good chance
UF - Great chance
Rollins College - I don’t know this school well, so I can’t help on this one. Sorry.</p>

33

<p>well???</p>

34

<p>justchuck: The OP was a junior when he/she (sorry if you listed it, I didn’t see it because I skimmed) posted this, so if you’re asking about his/her admissions results, he/she wouldn’t know yet.</p>

<p>And OP - clever title :)</p>

35

<p>You’re definitely in at UF and you’re probably going to get accepted at UNC chapel hill. NYU is good. I think you have a decent chance at Penn(as long as you’re not applying to Wharton), Georgetown and perhaps Columbia but I think you need to get your SAT scores higher especially to increase your chances at Harvard, Yale, Stanford and Princeton which are all reaches. Good Luck</p>

36

<p>Congratulations on coming out!</p>

37

<p>Oh, I realized that this got bumped. My final list of schools, and decisions, was this:</p>

<p>University of Pennsylvania, M&T (Wharton/SEAS) - Accepted ED
Princeton University
Harvard College
Yale University
Columbia University
Georgetown University
George Washington University
Northwestern University
University of Southern California
University of Michigan: Ann Arbor - Accepted
University of North Carolina: Chapel Hill - Accepted
University of Florida
Rollins College
Auburn University - Accepted</p>

<p>Everything else has been withdrawn, as I will be attending Penn.</p>
