Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hi! Thanks for checking this out and helping me out!!! </p>

<p>I am a rising Senior at a suburban public high school that does pretty well in college admissions. My GPA is 4.5 out of 5.3 (my school only does weighted) and my class rank is 26 out of 520. My SAT scores at this point in time are Math 650, writing 670, and CR 740, but I plan on retaking them. My subject tests are Lit: 680 and World history: 710.</p>

<p>EC:
I am the Editor-in-Chief of my school newspaper and have been an Editor of it since my freshman year (Opinions Editor, Copy Editor, then Editor-in-Chief)
I am the Founder/President of the Model United Nations club at my school.
I am the President of the Midnight Run club, a club that distributes food and clothing to those without homes in New York City and the surrounding area.
I am also a member of other various clubs. Also, I have run one season of track and one season of cross country, and i have been participating in cheerleading since the end of my sophomore year.</p>

<p>Community Service:
Besides the Midnight Run, I have volunteered for about 25 hours at a place in my town called El Centro Hispano, a place for people of Hispanic people of my area to come and recieve help in getting a job or a home, among other things.
I also volunteered in the Dominican Republic for a week at an orphanage through an organization called Orphanage Outreach. </p>

<p>Family History:
I come from a middle-class Caucasian family. My father went to George Washington University and my mom went to SUNY Stony Brook. My mom went to Pace University for law school and my dad went to the George Washington graduate school of political management. </p>

<p>Thank you for your help!<br>
Schools I'm interested in:
Swarthmore (ED)
GW (ED2 if i don't get into Swarthmore)
Davidson
Brown
SUNY Geneseo
Princeton
Emory</p>

<p>My recs and my essay should also be very good.</p>

<p>Thanks for trying to chance me :)
I'm very interested in international relations - are there any other schools that you would suggest considering my interests and my stats?</p>

<p>I have an edit: I also went to China as a pioneer trip with my school. </p>

<p>Also, two other kids from my school who have a better class rank (number 2 and 3) and possibly sat scores will also be applying ED with me. Does this affect my chances of getting in?</p>

<p>the two other students will definitely have an impact on your chances. the ranks will probably be the source of most of the comparison... you have a fairly decent chance, i think.</p>

<p>I think you have a decent chance, but don't take my word for it. I really think that someone else who knows more about the school should post. </p>

<p>I'm curious to hear what people have to say about your chances.</p>
