<p>PLEASE BE HONEST, WHAT DO YOU THINK MY CHANCES OF GETTING IN ARE?!?!?!?!?</p>

<p>I think you're in.</p>

<p>Are you talking of RD? If yes, then I'll rate your chances at 35-40% - not any more.</p>

<p>Field Hockey rules!
Since you're not submitting SAT, I think the GPA is low. Do you have AP exams of 3 or higher to show them you're capable? I hope you get in, you sound like a wonderful candidate but I'm worried about the GPA and no SAT thing.</p>

<p>Go ahead and apply to GC. They will look at your overall grades and curriculum in addition to your involvement with sports, leadership roles and any community service. I have friends whose kids went to GC and they had 3.3/3.4 gpa's. They will look at the whole picture. Also, write a great essay.</p>

<p>GOOD LUCK.</p>

<p>Girl, your in. No problem!</p>

<p>The profile sure is strong. Specially the ECs. Its looks like you've done an awesome job in high school but what we all are not considering here are the "Essays". Probably the most important factor for the decision. So, I don''t think anyone is able to "calculate" your %age changes of getting into Gettysburg.</p>

<p>Best of luck!!</p>

<p>i am very happy with the way my essay turned out, i dont really know what i should be comparing it too though, i have not ready anyone elses.. im so nervous! does anyone know what a good saftey school would be for someone like me who is obsessed with gettysburg?! thank you so muchh..</p>

<p>if you're obsessed, you should apply ED!</p>

<p>Isn't it too late, Emp?</p>

<p>Yeah, it's too late but for some reason I thought the OP was a junior.</p>
