Vanderbilt Chances

<p>Hello everyone. I come here today like many of you all wondering about my chances of admission to this top University. For the record, I will be applying ED.</p>

<p>Additional:
Will have taken Latin for seven years. Might help?
Am taking Calculus Honors this year and will take Multivariable Calculus next year (normally sophomore college course).</p>

<p>Opinions?
I feel like I am pretty well rounded with good test scores and achievements, but my GPA might kill me. My guidance counselor said that it was his job to communicate with colleges that two of the full year classes I have taken in my high school career (U.S. History Honors and Physics Honors) are classes in which it is impossible to achieve an A, as the teachers are extremely tough. That being said, I should have done better in my sophomore year, as my gpa would likely be around 3.85 if I had worked harder. I hope this does not kill me? Any advice would be appreciated.</p>

<p>If you apply ED, I think you have a pretty good chance. Acceptance rate was 11% this year so its pretty difficult to predict admissions. </p>
