<p>WHAT ARE MY CHANCES AT:</p>

<p>Yale, Princeton, Columbia, Cornell, NYU, Boston College, Berkeley, Brown and Georgetown.</p>

<p>I am a white female from California. My school does not give exact ranks, but I know that I am in the top 10% of my high school.
GPA: 4.13</p>

<p>10 APs in all of high school. Good volunteer activities and I am a ballet dancer. I candystripe and I am part of many clubs, publicity for French Club and Facilitator of Tolerance Club.</p>

<p>SAT: 1410 (640v 770m)
SAT II: 740 writing, 710 chemistry, 700 math IC</p>

<p>ALSO, what can I do to improve my chances? What am I weak in?</p>

<p>Brwn:</p>

<p>Just my 2 cents about your school list at best:</p>

<p>Yale: Iffy
Princeton: Iffy
Columbia: Iffy
Cornell: Okay
NYU: Okay to Good
Boston College: Okay to Good
UC-Berkeley: Good
Brown: Iffy
Georgetown: Okay</p>

<p>I would suggest adding a few other universities and colleges to your list which are match or safety schools. Make sure your recs and essays are outstanding, and focus on just a few activities (more if you are truely gifted) that show depth and commitment, as well as leadership. Anyhow, goodl luck on your applications.</p>

<p>i would try to find a safety or two and a couple better matches</p>

<p>if you can take the SAT again, try to boost your score some</p>

<p>i applied to georgetown last year with slightly higher stats and didn't even get waitlisted, i had a friend in the top five of the class and he got waitlisted...</p>

<p>I think all of those are matches for you. THose are some great stats!</p>

<p>Did you write great stats to yourself? That's what I call a positive approach!!</p>

<p>bump bump bump bump bump bump bump bump.... please someone give me a good review of my chances</p>

<p>Brwneyes, look on the different school boards and compare your stats and ECs to the others. Are you more impressive that 9/10? Then look at the school's admissions stats. Are you securely above average? If yes, then you have a reasonable shot. If no, you don't.</p>

11

<p>I was wondering the same thing.</p>

<p>My two cents: although your numbers are strong, you mention some of the most selective schools in the country. Do you have a truly outstanding EC/recs/essay? </p>

<p>I'm a little more pessimistic:
Yale, Princeton, Columbia, Brown: big reaches
Georgetown, Cornell: reach
NYU, BC: match but they too can be tricky
UCB: not from Ca, don't know</p>

<p>My advice...more matches and a safety or 2.</p>
