Who uses Mychances.net?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I'm currently using <a href="http://www.mychances.net%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.mychances.net&lt;/a> to 'calculate' my chances at different colleges, and I was wondering what others think about this site. It's very data driven, but I get the impression that they may not have enough data yet to make accurate predictions (the user base is fairly small). </p>

<p>For those who have used it, has it been accurate? For all others, any thoughts?</p>

<p>p.s. my profile is here - <a href="http://college.mychances.net/view/?id=5421&app=college%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://college.mychances.net/view/?id=5421&app=college&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>its a rough indicator of ur chances but sometimes their predictions are ridiculous because it is very data driven
my stats arent that great and they put me as in at UCLA and UCB but i got rejected lol
dont rely too much on that site</p>

<p>I joined, curious to see how it pans out.</p>

<p>It's dumb. It told me I could get into UCLA easier than UC Santa Barbara. Maybe I put something wrong? Oh well. It wasn't accurate for me but it might work for others.</p>

<p>yeah, but it's not very accurate. It bases how you'll get in by how other people got in...</p>

<p>I don't like it because it changes so much on a day-to-day basis. Yesterday it told me my chances at getting into Wesleyan were less than 20% (rejected); today they're like 70% (accepted). Meanwhile, it said I'd be accepted to Williams, Amherst, Brown, etc. but not Wesleyan...weird.</p>

<p>The site only factors in academics when calculating your chances at your selected schools. So it is impossible to estimate your chances at ivys and other top tier schools that place a lot of emphasis on ECs, awards, etc..</p>

<p>I signed up for fun/just to see what it would say-it was wrong, very wrong. :/</p>
