What Do You Think Of My Chances?

<p>Elon-definitely in
Wake Forest-match
UNC Chapel Hill-high match
NYU-match
UChicago-slight reach, could easily go either either way
Northwestern-same thing ^
Brown-reach</p>

<p>I don’t know about the UK schools, but good luck!</p>

<p>Thanks JNL :)</p>

<p>Your scores look really high! You should have an easy time getting into more of those colleges. There are a couple that I would say might be a bit hard though. First, Brown is an ivy league school. Although, with your scores, it seems like you should have a decent chance at it. Then there’s North Carolina, which, from what I’ve heard, is very hard to get into if your not in-state. As for the rest, you should have a great chance at being accepted. Good luck!</p>

<p>Chance me?

<p>Thanks Arnold :)</p>

<p>Elon University - match
Wake Forest University - match
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill - high match
New York University - high match
The University of Chicago - low reach
Northwestern University - low reach
Brown University - reach
Overall your scores are great especially your ACT. Good luck on getting in!</p>

<p>Thank you Public :)</p>

<p>here I’ll give it a shot:
Elon University - in
Wake Forest University - match
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill - high match
New York University - high match
The University of Chicago - reach
Northwestern University -reach
Brown University - high reach (for most)</p>

<p>Thanks Ankles :)</p>

<p>Im not familiar with the UK schools so I can’t say anything for them…</p>

<p>But I think the US schools are matches except brown = high reach
UChicago = low reach/match
Elon = low reach/match
Northwestern = same^</p>

<p>Does your school report the actual number grade? Most colleges use their own system to refactor our GPAs. But I’m sure on your transcript it shows they use the 7 point system so you should be okay!!!</p>

<p>Good luck, what’s your first choice btw?</p>

<p>I have no idea on the schools outside of America, but from what I know on the American schools I’d say you will be fine for most of your schools, but University of Chicago and Northwestern will be more difficult, and Brown will be a big reach but cross your fingers there.</p>

<p>Sorry, my reply doesn’t say anything different than the rest of them, but at least you’re getting a consensus</p>

<p>Sorry, my reply doesn’t say anything different than the rest of them, but at least you’re getting a consensus</p>

<p>You have three schools on your list that present clear admission challenges to almost anyone: The University of Chicago, Northwestern University, and Brown University.</p>

<p>People on CC (and perhaps universally) tend to exaggerate the difference in selectivy of getting into the mid/lower ivies vs the other top 12 schools. If you are a highly qualified candidate for U Chicago or Northwestern then you are likley also a very reasonable candidate for Brown. The mid-point SAT scores for freshman at both Northwestern and U of Chicago are higher than those for freshman at Brown. If you have a chance at any one of these three, then you have a fair shot at any of the three. </p>

<p>You likely meet the “academic preparedness” threshold for all three schools. Hopefully your EC’s and essays and recs and all the subjective factors utiitzed will paint a picture of the freshman they need as the adcoms build their freshman classes. Good luck.</p>

<p>CPU: My school only reports letter grade, not actual numbers, which upsets me, because I know if a college recalculated based on their point system, my GPA would be better. Northwestern is my first choice right now. I think I’m in love, but I know its gonna be difficult, so I’m only cautiously hopeful. </p>

<p>Ptable: Thanks :slight_smile: I know I haven’t had a lot of diversity in answers, but I’m happy with a consensus :)</p>

<p>Hinsdale: Thank you for your advice. It was thorough and incredibly helpful :slight_smile: I appreciate it. I hope they like me too ;)</p>

<p>Out of the US colleges (I know nothing about UK colleges): Brown is a high reach, UChicago low reach, NW low reach/high target, the rest are some type of target.</p>

<p>Okay. Thank you Bob :)</p>

<p>Elon University- target
Wake Forest University- target
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill- low reach
New York University- target
The University of Chicago- low reach
Northwestern University- low reach
Brown University (I’m pretty sure I won’t get in here, but it was worth a try).- reach</p>

<p>Thanks for chancing me

<p>I think you have a pretty good shot at Elon, Wake Forest, UNC, and NYU. Like everyone else has said UChicago and Northwestern are low reaches and Brown is a reach, but it’s an Ivy so you can’t really expect anything. Anyways, best of luck and thanks for chancing me in my thread!</p>

<p>Thanks Violater and LJ :)</p>

<p>The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill-match! but as people said on my thread, UNC is very unpredictable hahaha.
New York University- match
The University of Chicago-low reach
Northwestern University-reach
Brown University -reach (but it is for everyone, so don’t worry too much!)</p>
