<p>stats look great, but remember Bates is more about fitting into the community then the stats. Make sure that you interview and show your interest in the school if you want to be taken seriously. Other then that, you look pretty good, hope to see you around campus next year!!!</p>

<p>Ok, let me ask you...what does the average Bates GPA seem to be weighted? I mean, all schools do it differently...but for a 4.0 scale with AP and honors classes included. I just want to figure if I have a decent chance at Bates based on my GPA and other factors. If you could tell me this from the best of your knowledge, I would greatly appreciate it. </p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
