who's got the biggest reach?

<p>Tawny your stats are phenominal! </p>

<p>I have a really good friend in the USC film production program and he told me that admission into the film school is based more on supplemental materials than grades and test scores. </p>

<p>Either way, Good luck!</p>

<p>mine feels like a big reach for me!! i applied to cornell engineering ED...
600CR, 680M, 690W..and then only a 600Chem, 680MathIIC, 680Lit...I have never been able to take standardized tests although I got a 31 on my ACT..somewhat decent..
I have lots of AP classes (at least as many as my horrible school offers), lots of ECs, work experience,and I take college math classes so hopefully those will help me...
oh any my GPA is 4.3w... I think 3.9uw
I'm 5/480</p>

<p>hmm, don't scream at me, but I think it's a reach:
RD at cornell
stats are:
gpa: 3.85
SATs: 670m 710v 690w (2070)
SATIIs: 730 ush 650 spanish :(
ecs: only 5 or 6 things, leadership positions, but not super-special... didn't really do enough for extras
essays: great common app essay, BUT HAVE NOT STARTED SUPPLEMENT AHHHH. have no idea what will write about.</p>

<p>horrible things that will pull me down:
- white female from northeast (boston)
- undecided major
- super-competative school (everyone gets 2300's)
- no legacy anywhere (first generation immigrant)
- low low low income</p>

<p>come on...i have the real reach:
660m, 570v, 580w
620biosat2, 710chem sat2, 730 math2c sat2 ---only things keepin me alive
26 composite act score
3's on bio and chem APs
taking 3 aps this year (physics, calc, comp)
ranked 16/310
4.3w, 3.5uw
good ecs
not that great essays </p>

<p>my reach is::::: Brown ED.
i find out on the 12th at 5 pm!! pray for me guys!</p>

<p>well, at least you have the good ecs part. personality counts more than the numbers, and my only personality trait that every person who's done recs for me has underlined:
"she's really hardworking/diligent"
I'm sure I've underlined this too much too.
they'll be like, "YES, OKAY, WE GET IT... SHE IS HARDWORKING! ANYTHING ELSE? ANYTHING?????" nope.</p>

<p>This is starting to really, really, REALLY depress me. I mean, this threat is suppose to make people feel better...but then everyone keep posting their awesome stats! Come on, that's not the point of this! Let us losers(I'm speaking for myself and everyone in my position) wallow in our own misery. So.....if you're ranked 4/357 and have a 2200....don't post here. Ahhhh...thanks.</p>

<p>Thankyou Sunflower :)</p>

<p>i'm applying to cmu and tufts with 1960 and 305 weighted gpa. hopefullly i can get in</p>

<p>MIT</p>

SAT II: 680 lit, 680 bio/m, 630 math II (lol... and MIT is a math school)
GPA: 4.33 weighted
Rank 3/420</p>

<p>Yeah... I'm OK except the math scores.</p>

<p>i think it is a reach with those schools, but yes, not to "our extremes". i'm ranked 117, tawny.</p>

<p>menucha, you are tactless. read the post three above yours.
also, why are you applying to MIT with such low math scores -- a "math school" in your own words?</p>

<p>seriously. i started this thread as a sort of rallying cry: "IT'S OKAY, THERE ARE OTHERS LIKE YOU AT CC!" but it's sort of turning into a typical cc insecure thread. bad ccers! BAD!</p>

<p>Brown, Georgetown</p>

<p>Grade Average: 97/100

<p>How much of a reach is this?
I really wanna go to Brown, but if not I'd be perfectly happy at Georgetown..</p>

<p>waaait, did you not just see the above posts?</p>

<p>yeah, wow.
i give up</p>

<p>haha. i love how people ask for chances too.</p>

<p>pshhh, we're all insecure here, okay??? sorry.<br>
toffee - I don't think every school for you is a reach, anyway. don't you have an 800 in cr? I don't think nyu or bu are reaches for you. yeah, I said it. that's right!</p>

<p>PS: no hostility is meant by that; I just think you'll be fine.. :)</p>

<p>my sat IIs are actually awful. like, 550 math IC. came out of nowhere... i don't know which to take in january</p>

<p>Okay check this out: I applied to Harvard EA, I have a 3.63 UW -- I'm not a URM, and I play no sports. Now THAT'S pathetic. Oh and pretty much my entire TOWN will be devastated when I get rejected.</p>

<p>Finally received my correct stats. GC screwed up our UW GPAs a few months back.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.87 UW, 5.67 W
Rank: 14/436
SAT I: 680cr, 570m, 620w, 12 essay
SAT II: I don't want to talk about them lol.
ACT: 28
ECs: Few, but time consuming.</p>

<p>Schools (RD): Brandeis, BU, BC. I didn't think I was much of a reach until I discovered CC lol. I feel great about everything except my SATs.</p>
