<p>That’s great! Make sure that your recommendations tell them a lot about your desire to pursue English/Journalism.</p>
<p>I hope things work out for you.</p>
<p>My Lit teacher talked to them about my journalism pursuits 
My original rec did too, so I hope they get the picture. LOL. And thanks. I really hope they want me :)</p>

Northwestern University- low to mid reach

<p>Your extracurriculars aren’t’ that great and since you’re applinyg out of state for most of these schools, you’ll be up against tougher competition. But, your SATs are awesome!

<p>Thanks Violater. Of course I will chance you :)</p>
<p>thanks for chancing me! </p>
<p>Very good chance everywhere. Less of a chance at Northwestern, UChicago, and Brown, just because they are generally more competitive. I think you’ve chosen a good mix of safety, match, and reach schools, and you should definitely get into at least 4-5 of them. I don’t know much about the international schools, so I can’t help you there.</p>
<p>Congrats!</p>
<p>Thanks Sparnette :)</p>
<p>My 2 cents.
Wake Forest University- in
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill- match
New York University- In
The University of Chicago- mid reach
Northwestern University- low reach
Brown University- high reach</p>
<p>OP is greencard holder, why do people treat him/her as an international student?</p>
<p>I am not sure if I am good at chancing you because I cannot even chance myself, but I’ll try. I do not know anything about UK colleges and universities at all.
I think that you may have a little difficulty with The University of Chicago, Northwestern University, and Brown University because you are not in the top %10 of your class (even though you are really close!) and your GPA is fine but if it is closer to 4.0 it may make a big difference.</p>
<p>Elon University- target
Wake Forest University- target
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill- low reach
New York University- low reach
The University of Chicago- high reach
Northwestern University- reach
Brown University - reach</p>
<p>Thanks Philly. I am actually a permenant resident, and can get citizenship now. Just have to be able to pay for it. I am NOT an international student. LOL</p>
<p>Thanks Vloria. It should be closer to 4.0 after this year, which makes me excited :)</p>
<p>Thanks Nopsy :)</p>
<p>Elon University- in
Wake Forest University- in
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill-in

<p>^If you were to look at the actual admissions statistics, you would likely find that some of the posted chance opinions do not seem to pass the common-sense test.</p>
<p>For example, it is difficult to determine on what basis one might rate NYU as equally a challenging admission as say U Chicago or Northwestern. Or even on what basis that U Chicago is a higher reach than NU. Or why Elon University is not a “safety”, if UNC Chapel Hill is an “in”.</p>
<p>You may wish to consider examining these schools admission rates and ACT/SAT ranges. Or there is a list, which has been helpful to me, that attempts to provide a more data-based comparison of selectivity at these colleges called <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1074266-top-colleges-ranked-difficulty-admissions-4.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1074266-top-colleges-ranked-difficulty-admissions-4.html</a> which may be useful. YMMV</p>
<p>You have good scores and a solid gpa. Id say you have good chances of getting into all of those schools.
Best of Luck to You!!!</p>
<p>chance me back please</p>

<p>Desperatu: Of course I have already looked at SAT/ACT ranges and admission rates. If I knew I didn’t have a chance at ANY of my schools, I wouldn’t have applied there, now would I? 
I was asking for opinions on my chances, considered stats are not always helpful. Just because I have the right scores ranges, etc. doesn’t mean I’ll get in.</p>
<p>Van: Thank you. And of course I will :)</p>
