What are my chances to get into the top 35 schools, such as NYU, University of Michigan, University of Cal. Berkeley, Wash. U. STL, John Hopkins, UCLA, Northwestern U, UNC Chapel Hill, etc.?</p>
<p>You have a pretty good chance with pretty much all of these schools.</p>
<p>Thank You, any other responses please! Will chance back, promise!!!</p>
<p>Definitely a great chance because of the URM and the 3.93 UW GPA. What’s your intended major? Engineering (just a guess because you’re taking 3 AP science courses and an AP math course)?
Chance me?

<p>My intended major and passion in Medicine, most likely Chemistry and Pre-Med</p>
<p>Bump Bump? Please keep the messages coming, I’d like to get a good picture of where I’m at! WILL CHANCE BACK!!! (Reason my weighted GPA is low is because my school’s point system for GPA is low compared to others, i.e, highest GPA you can get is a 4.5)</p>
<p>How about Vanderbilt University, Rice, Emory, University of Chicago, Notre Dame, USC? Do you think it into those, especially Vanderbilt??!! I will chance Back!!</p>
<p>You seem like you have a really good chance at all those schools. </p>
<p>I mean, in the case in which your looking for suggestions, the only other thing I could think of you doing is working to convey your passion by getting involved in some sort of activity that’s related to medicine. </p>
<p>suggestions for me?

<p>Good shot because u are black. Good Luck</p>
<p>Please ignore ImSoAmbitious 's ignorant comment. Yes, being a URM helps, but it will not be the only reason that you are admitted to a top school. Remember that there are many minorities applying to these same schools with statistics just as good, if not better, than yours. I think you have a decent chance at roughly half of the top 35 schools but HYPSM and some others will no doubt be reaches, as they are for everyone. Don’t limit yourself to just the “top” schools. You must include safeties, and you never know what you will find outside of the narrow minded range of rankings that USNWR has enforced upon our society.</p>
<p>Thank You, much appreciated, any more chances, I WILL CHANCE BACK!! I PROMISE</p>
<p>I was not trying to be ignorant. Pardon me if I sounded that way. You are a very completive applicant and being a URM will certainly help your case.</p>
<p>Thank You, much appreciated, any more chances, I WILL CHANCE BACK!! I PROMISE</p>
<p>Bump…bump</p>
<p>any more chances, I WILL CHANCE BACK!! I PROMISE</p>
