<p>hmmm i’d say that just based on grades, UChicago, Georgetown, columbia. and middlebury are all reachhhh but with the rest of the stuff in your application your chances go up a lot! Emory Vassar and Kenyon are all in/match… good luck!</p>

<p>U Chicago- very high reach
Georgetown SFS- high reach
Columbia- rejected
Middlebury- not sure, actually
Emory-Oxford Campus- high reach
WashU in StLouis- very high reach
Vassar- possibly a match
Kenyon- maybe match</p>

<p>These are all pretty tough schools, but I’m sure you’ll get in to at least one. I’m just giving the worst case scenario :)</p>

10

<p>thanks for the worst case, iff2mastamatt
but i think your statistics are kind of skewed…emory at oxford for example: my SAT scores are actually ABOVE their 50th percentile</p>

11

<p>U Chicago - reach
Georgetown - reach
Columbia - reach
Middlebury - ?
Emory-Oxford Campus - ?
WashU in StLouis - reach
Vassar - ?
Kenyon - ?</p>

12

<p>once again…bump!</p>

13

<p><em>sigh</em> bump again</p>

14

<p>???bump</p>

15

<p>Your scores could be a little higher. I disagree with most of the people in this thread who say your grades are too low…3.8 UW after moving three times seems pretty damn good to me. </p>

<p>U Chicago-Reach (can’t really do this accurately without essays, though)
Georgetown SFS-?
Columbia-High Reach
Middlebury-Low Reach
Emory-Oxford Campus-?
WashU in StLouis-High Match
Vassar-Match
Kenyon-High Match</p>

<p>Do you have any safeties?</p>
