SAT unsuperscored: 2130

Extracurriculars:
-violinist
-National Honor Society, Mu Alpha Theta, National Hispanic Honor Society

-school trivia team
-school math team

Honors:

I am not the highest authority but I think you have excellent chances to get in. UNC is highly selective for people out of state, but your stats are amazing

@Amphicoelias Thank you so much! My SAT I score increased to 2260 and I got a 720 on the SAT II Biology E test. Do you think this will increase my chances by a lot?

Your chances are 50/50 like every other OOS high stat student. It’s a mystery what they look for. My daughter was rejected two years ago with higher stats and great EC’s. It will all be ok one way or another.

I definitely think you have a decent chance of getting in. Your SAT I score increase will definitely give you a boost. The middle 50% SAT scores for class of 2019 were between 1810 and 2130. Your UW GPA and W GPA both are impressive as well. Even though you’re OOS I think you’re a very competitive applicant.

Thanks everyone for your input! I hope this works out for me.

Bump for more replies!

I think you have a great chance. I know that you are OOS but your stats are excellent and I think you will really stand out. I’m applying too (in-state) and the wait is killing me! Good luck, I think you will be fine :slight_smile:

Pretty good shot at admission! Great GPA and pretty good standardized testing. Good luck! :slight_smile:

Thanks everyone!

@student9988 I know!!! The wait is killing me too! I keep checking my UNC portal hoping that maybe they moved up the decision date, even though I know that that will never happen.

Yes it’s so hard to wait!! Will you chance me back for UNC?(http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1787565-unc-chapel-hill-in-state-chances.html#latest)
