Wake Forest Chances?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

I just finished my junior year and I’m applying ED to Wake. My HS is known for its rigorous school systems (one of the top in the state)…my GPA isn’t that great so I’m a little worried. Also my school doesn’t rank.

GPA: 4.15 (3.4 UW)
SAT: 2130 (M 770, CR 660, W 700)
NHS, Honor Roll

I have always taken the highest level classes available except for college physics (junior year) and college english (senior year)…APs: US History, Calc BC, Government and Politics, Spanish

ECs:
–3 seasons of sports all 4 years (varsity all 4 years and captain of skiing)
–SADD (member all 4 years, officer 10th-12th)
–Yearbook editor, 12th
–Student Council Rep, 9th and 10th
–Math tutor (10th-12th grades)
–Peer mentor to freshman (11th and 12th)
–Worked as a ski instructor

I also have a lot of community service (volunteer coaching, traveling to 3rd world countries, leading church retreats)–total is probably around 200+ hours. Also, I plan on studying math

Wake is test optional, so they place heavy importance on subjective factors. Your GPA seems fine considering you have a rigorous schedule and your SAT definitely won’t hurt you. EC’s look good as well. Write a quality essay and answer their additional supplements with thought and personality, and I think you have a good chance. Also, WF is big on interviews, so try to schedule one soon if you are applying ED.
