Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>GPA: 2.94
ACT: 24 (Math 26, Reading 23, Science 24, English 24) </p>

<p>EC's: Youth Group, Invisible Children (club)
Work: Part-Time O'Charleys (restaurant)</p>

<p>Basically I'm the guy who figured out how important GPA is too late. My dream school is UIUC and I live in Kentucky. I love Illinois and plan to work there as entry-level trader after a bachelor's degree in Finance.</p>

<p>I'm guessing I have no chance at all, basically because my strengths are interpersonal and not shown well on paper and ink.</p>

<p>I'm going to visit September the 29th. Am I a lost cause?</p>

<p>If so, here I come UK. =/</p>

<p>so I'm guessing everyone is saying I fail? haha</p>

3

<p>It is very unlikely to be admitted with your current credentials. You might want to check out different schools.</p>

4

<p>Have you thought about the Springfield campus? You'd be much more of a match there.</p>

5

<p>I looked at the University of Illinois at Chicago and the Illinois Institute of Technology aswell.</p>

<p>I've heard that UIC is a commuter school and doesn't really offer the "college lifestyle" so that kind of deters me from applying. Any thoughts on that?</p>

<p>Also, is it true that IIT has a training program that specializes in training individuals for the trading industry?</p>
