Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hey,</p>

<p>I wanted to start a thread asking whether I have high chances for getting into the schools I want. I am graduating next year, and I these are my grades so far</p>

<p>9th grade
1 semester-2 B's and 1 A-
2 semester-all A's</p>

<p>10th, 11th, and 12th grade I also got all A's. </p>

<p>The only B's I got were in 9th grade first semester in Honors World History and AP Computer Science. The only A- I got was also in 9th grade and that was in Honors English. </p>

<p>My Unweighted GPA will be 3.96.
My Weighted GPA will be 4.75.</p>

<p>My SAT Score was 2100.
My ACT Score was 33.</p>

<p>What are my chances into getting into these schools:</p>

<p>• New York University
• University of California—Santa Barbra
• Carnegie Mellon
• University of Michigan
• University of Illinois at Urbana
• Penn State</p>

<p>Also, what are my chances into getting into any Ivy League Schools?</p>

<p>What are you planning on majoring in and how are you extracurriculars?</p>

<p>UIUC and CMU for engineering are significantly harder to get into than any other major which is why I’m asking. Penn State and UCSB should be a safety/match for you no matter what though.</p>
