What's my match?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>New improvements!:
GPA went up from a 3.18 to a 3.34 UW.
Class rank went up from 42% to 36% (178/488)
Received all A's in 6 AP classes last semester--AP Psychology, AP Art History, AP U.S. Government, AP English Literature, AP European History, and AP Human Geography.</p>

<p>Everything else is the same:
ACT: 30; 33 English, 24 Math, 12/12 essay
AP scores: all 5's in AP World History, AP U.S. History and AP English Language
EC's:
9-11th: Debate, captain 11th grade, state qualifier
12th: Amnesty International, founder and president
11-12th: Community service organization
12th: National Honors Society (with my new GPA I'm eligible this year, yay!)
Community service: 500+ hours of volunteer work in nonprofits and community groups</p>

<p>During 10th and 11th grade I underwent a 'special circumstance' and let my recommenders and colleges know what I went through and what I learned...</p>

<p>Waiting for decisions from:
University of Texas at Austin
Scripps College
Barnard College
Smith College
Trinity University</p>

<p>I've been accepted to the local-state-university-that-takes-anyone and Austin College (they had to see my 7th semester transcript before accepting me.) Being deferred from my match-safety sort of upset me. With the exception of Trinity (which I'm guessing has the same selectivity as Austin College), did I end up applying to too many reaches?</p>

<p>wow. if you maintained a good gpa they would all be matches...but with a 3.34, i wouldnt say any of them...maybe UT?</p>

<p>If I wanted the best chance for law school, would I be better off at a large state university (University of North Texas) and then transferring, or Austin College? </p>

<p>I guess I can't get into any of the other schools on my list and I'd rather have a plan before April... I'm thinking of taking time off too.</p>

<p>i would do austin college over north texas...but you can still transfer if you dont like austin college.</p>
