What are my chances of getting into UNC Chapel Hill?

Applying to College

<p>Alright, I’m a bit new to this sight so please excuse me if this is a little out of order.</p>

<p>Anyways, I am currently a Junior attending a somewhat-small school in the state of North Carolina. My goal for years has been to get into UNC Chapel Hill. Think I could?
Here’s the details.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.9-4.0
Classes: All honors and my first AP class this year. I plan on taking as many AP’s as possible senior year as well as Spanish IV and AP Spanish. I also am studying American Sign Language outside of school on my own personal accord.
Grades: Generally all A’s, although I did receive two B+’s last semester and one last year.
Clubs/Extracurricular: Secretary of H.O.S.A Club, active member of Debate Club, and Editor of my school Newspaper. I also have acquired many volunteer hours at my town’s nursing home and various medical facilities. (I plan on going into a medical profession.)
SAT: Have not taken it yet, but I will be this semester. Based on my PSAT scores it was estimated to be around 1860, however, I had not yet taken the recommended math course at the time of the PSAT since my school divides different classes into different semesters, so I’m certain I can pull it higher now that I have the class.
Awards: President’s Education Awards Program, Academic Letter Scholar, Principal’s List.
Essay-wise, I’m a good writer so it should be no issue.</p>

<p>Like I said, UNC Chapel Hill is my main school, but if not possible I would also like to go to UNC Wilmington.
What do you think?</p>

<p>Your SATs are about 80-90 points below the median, but as you say, your math coursework should help you pull it up. My advice would be to go online to the collegeboard website and work on all the Math practice questions. Review the instructions for the Math sections of the test and re-study the math applications that are tested - you should be able to realize a significant gain on the math score in a relatively short time. The CR and W sections of the SAT tend to measure knowledge of a near-infinite range of vocabulary and narrative skills that take years to develop. M measures a much more constrained set of skills that allow for quicker study.</p>

<p>UNC @ The Beach sounds like a lock for you.</p>
