Average Accepted GPA: 99.63 (I have a 95.76) *** My GPA is considered pretty low in comparison here, but I have shown a great upward trend since freshman year. Eliminate my freshman year grades and early sophomore, and I would have about a 99.33 average, hypothetically
Combined SAT 1600: 1425 (I have a 1470)
Single SAT 2400: 2119 (I have a 2240)

<p>isn’t this like your 10th chance thread on the same topic, What are my chances at ILR ED? No offense but if you are already applying, when keep posting?</p>

<p>@SweetIceTea, good point. hopefully after 11:59 PM tonight there will be no more of these.</p>

4

<p>@SweetIceTea‌ What’s wrong with making chance threads after you send the application?</p>

5

<p>@myrealname there is nothing wrong with it but you have post many of the same threads. For example….</p>

<p>What are my chances what are my chances what are my chances what are my chances at ILR ED most recently

Chances for Cornell ED? 10/10
Chance me for ED? 10/10 （in the Cornell forum) </p>

<p>You keep posting the same things. There is nothing wrong with posting a chance thread after your applied, but why do you post so many threads with the same information, asking the same questions? No offense.</p>

6

<p>@MyRealName It’s fine to do it now. I think you have a good chance.</p>

7

<p>@SweetIceTea‌ You’re right, I should have just bumped them, oh well</p>

8

<p>bump</p>

<p>@MyRealName‌ the ED deadline has passed. What do you hope to gain from having somebody take a wild guess as to whether you will be accepted or rejected? Just relax, the countdown to Decision Day (D-Day) has begun. Let it tick down. Stop worrying</p>

<p>@BPearlman97‌ I don’t feel very confident about my chances and would like to know what other people think. It’s not like I would make chance threads for any other reason even if it was before the deadline</p>

11

<p>I understand @MyRealName‌. My point is that there is nothing that you can do to change your chances at this point, so you should really just relax and stop worrying about it. It can only cause more stress, stress that cannot really be alleviated by others…</p>

<p>@BPearlman97‌ That’s not true, if someone were to say I have good chances that would alleviate the stress by a lot</p>
