Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hello all. Please chance me for the UMD priority admission as well as possible Honors College admission/ BK recipient. Thank you.</p>

<p>Stats:</p>

<p>4.0 UW / 4.71 W
Maryland Resident- I attend the 2nd best public school in the state of Maryland (Moco) (~50 in the nation)
School does not rank. It is very well known amongst college admission counselors- sends MANY kids to ivies.</p>

<p>All honors classes except for 1 AP soph. year (Gov't), 4APs junior year (Chem, comp. pol., psych, spanish), and 2 APs senior year (Calc Bc and Spanish Lit). I got a 5 on all except for Chem (4) and BC/Lit which I havent taken yet.</p>

<p>Hispanic</p>

<p>Sat Scores: Superscored: 690R , 800M , 750W (don't look at) -- 1490/1600</p>

<p>Sat 2 Scores: Spanish (790), Chemistry (750), Math II (710)</p>

<p>Activities:</p>

<p>Key Club President- all 4 years
Internship at the National Institutes of Health
Job at local supermarket
Founder of Latino Club</p>

<p>Awards:
AP scholar w/ Distinction
Honor Roll
Nothing else, really. I have 570+ hours of community service</p>

<p>Recs: Should be okay from both teachers- not too spectacular / counselor rec is probably pretty generic</p>

<p>Essays/Short-response: Pretty good essays. Short responses weren't as good- somewhat contrived and rushed.</p>

<p>Applied Priority... I think that's it! Thanks for your time.</p>

<p>I think priority is how UMD speaks about EA. (Well, I think it is a non-restrictive, EA plan)</p>

<p>UMD EA: Safety</p>

<p>As for UMD honors: I think you might have a chance.</p>

3

<p>You go to Winston Churchill?</p>

<p>UMD = Safety</p>

7

<p>I’d say match for UMD honors.</p>

8

<p>scholarship money?</p>

9

<p>Whitman is ranked 84 in the nation, not ~50. And why don’t you just wait and see if you get in at the end of this month?</p>

10

<p>I will be waiting. Do you go to churchill? You seem a bit irritated.</p>

11

<p>Sorry, I thought it was closer to 50. Anyways, it doesn’t matter. The point is that it’s a very competitive school which sends many kids to top institutions.</p>

12

<p>no I don’t go to Churchill. </p>

<p>That was just advice, to wait, because it’s so close. Also, I think you know you’re going to get in.</p>

13

<p>You’ll get in. overqualified. good luck!</p>
