Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hey everyone! I am a first time poster here and I am hoping to get some insight on my college choices. Most of my choices are pretty high reaches so I'm hoping someone could give me some names for colleges that would fit my profile. Thanks in advance! :)</p>

<p>Grade: Junior
Gender: Female
Race: 1/2 Caucasian, 1/2 Asian

<p>So, for your freshmen and sophmore year, did the new school just throw those GPAs out? I find it hard to believe you could be in the top 4% of your class a 3.05 and 3.11. But, good job nonetheless, and I hope you can get into a UC school you want!</p>

<p>Your SAT score is quite low for some of those schools, you’ll need to bring it up quite a bit.</p>

<p>University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill- reach
University of Pennsylvania- reach
University of Virginia- reach
Syracuse- ???
University of Southern California- reach
UCLA- low reach
Duke- reach
Arizona State University- match</p>

<p>What are you looking for in a college? What is most important to you?</p>

<p>I really have no idea. I believe they’re only counting my grades from my new school because I got into National Honors Society and the ELC program. My old school was extremely hard and I believe each course credit counted as 5.00 (without honors). I’m looking for a traditional college atmosphere, and something that would match my criteria. Weather, size, location doesn’t really matter :)</p>
