I was very sick my sophomore year of High school so I didnt really do so hot. It brought down my GPA. I was hoping that my standardized test scores, extra Cirrc, and my interest ( I have visited, interviewed, and attended all their information sessions in my area) would boost my chances. THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!!

:frowning: im sorry about your deferral— you seem like a really strong applicant. i think you will most likely get into at least half of the schools on your list, with schools such as duke and penn being higher reaches than the others because of their low rd acceptance rates. i hope everything works out for you! i believe that you will get in somewhere amazing

Your scores are really competitive, but your GPA is a little low. Sorry about getting deferred :confused: but I think you stand a solid chance at the other schools on your list

The only weak point in your application is your GPA. It will probably make schools like JH and Cornell a reach, but you have a decent shot at the others.
