Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I have had some health problems in the past, so I have had a bizarre curriculum and low grades during my freshman and sophmore years. I have learnt to deal with it over time and have had an unward trend throughout high school. My school is rural and public and has small classes and offers no real ap classes.</p>

<p>I'm white. Lower middle class, might qualify for EOP or HEOP.</p>

<p>SATs: 610 critical reading 580 math
ACT: 27
Culmulative GPA: 94.5 w 94.0 uw
Rank: 10/80</p>

English 9 65
Global 9 65
Earth Science 65</p>

<p>Sophmore year:
English 10 91
Global 10 85
Biology 96
Algebra 92
Accounting 81
Health 100</p>

<p>Summer:
PSY 101 100
SOC 101 100
had to take these at the community college so i would have enough credit to graduate.</p>

<p>Junior year:
English 11 95
US History (AP) 97 not a real AP class, community college credit class
Chemistry 99
Geometry 98
Computer Apps. 100

<p>NYS Regents Grades
Global 94
US History 99

<p>if my average seems off, i am probably forgetting some classes.</p>

<p>Edit: forgot to mention, i had the highest grades in my bio, US history, Chem, Geometry, and com. apps class (only 100).</p>

<p>Extracurriculars, havent been able to do many

Scholastic Bowl 1 year 2nd place in region
chemistry olympiad participant, highest scorer in school</p>

<p>Chances:
SUNY Buffalo
SUNY Stony Brook
Cornell (CALS)(longshot)
RIT
SUNY Geneseo</p>

<p>im in state for the SUNY colleges</p>

2

<p>scratch that, 620 cr on SATs</p>

3

<p>i don't know about the SUNYs, but i don't think Cornell is happening.</p>

4

<p>Doesn't look so great. Ditto - Cornell is not happening.</p>

5

<p>ive never heard of any other than cornell.
eh eh.</p>

6

<p>SUNYs probably/yes. =]</p>

7

<p>how do u have a 94 gpa and have a 65 straight in freshman yr?
i agree w/ the above tho..</p>

<p>Depending on what your medical situation is, and if you can explain it you can possibly get into better schools than what you think your limited too. Going to take subject tests?</p>

9

<p>i think i can use my medical situation to my advantage.</p>

<p>Also, I can get excellent recs from my am. hist, chem teachers and my guidance counciler. My gc has told me that he would give me a stronger reccomendation than anyone else in my class, and he said I had to work harder than anyone else to get to the situation I am currently in. He also told me that I was the only person at our school to get real college prep (it is unpresedented at my school for someone to take even a community college course while still in high school.)</p>

<p>As for subject tests, I would take them, but my gc said they weren't worth looking into.</p>

<p>Oh yeah, anyone who knows anything about SUNY buffalo, could they chance me on the provost scholarship offered there.</p>

10

<p>Oh, yeah, and if it helps, my dad makes 49,000 a year to support a family of 9.</p>

11

<p>Cornell is just not happening. </p>

<p>RIT is a reach, but if you try the SATs again and get 650+ its a real possibility.</p>

12

<p>Community college and then transfer if you want to go to Cornell. CALS adores transfer students.</p>
