Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I'm REALLY sorry to post this again; I know it's not exactly kosher to make multiple threads concerning the same topic, but for some reason CC doesn't let you edit your original posts for some reason. But I just got my new ACT score back, so here goes: </p>

<p>Sex: Male
Ethnicity: White/Asian (Japanese)
Home State: Michigan (Oakland County)
GPA: 3.83 UW (School doesn't weight)
ACT: 30 (35 English, 25 Math, 30 Reading, 28 Science)
Class Rank: 21/321 (top 7%)</p>

<p>APs/Honors:
Psychology: 4
US Government: 4
Composition: 5
US History: 4
Macroeconomics: 2
Honors Earth Science, Biology, and English Freshman year (Only year Honors was offered)</p>

<p>I'm currently taking AP Stats, and even though I didn't take the class, am probably going to take the AP Literature test as well. I also took Japanese and Chinese classes after school at the local community college.</p>

<p>As for ECs, I've had the lead role in our high school musical for the last 3 years and the play for one year. I played Varsity Tennis my Sophomore year, and did Show Choir for two years, receiving State honors each time for multiple events. I also helped to co-found a chapter of Students Against Destructive Decisions at my school, and am the current Vice-President. I also did Drama Club for a couple years and helped to get that program started as well. I spent the summer between Sophomore and Junior year in Washington, DC as a student delegate to the Congressional Youth Leadership Conference, which was a great experience. I did NHS my Junior year, but I ended up quitting and declining admission back to the program. I really hated it. I was given an award for community service excellence last Fall as well for my work with election efforts. I know there's a few I'm missing, but whatever.</p>

<p>Also, I feel like my essays were incredibly solid, and my counselor/teacher recs were really great, too.</p>

<p>Schools:
University of Michigan (ED)
University of Chicago
Northwestern University
Michigan State University</p>

<p>Michgan- Match
Chicago- low reach; your ACTs arent going to help you
Northwestern- high match
Michigan State- Safety</p>

<p>Musicals wont really help you; every high school has a star. you need to show some passion and I’m not really seeing a trend.</p>

<p>Chance back?</p>
