Would you be willing to tell me my chances?

<p>I'm a white female from New York City. I'm planning to be a biochem/molecular bio major.</p>

<p>GPA: 90/100 unweighted
Class Rank: unknown
SATs: 2120: 730 Reading / 720 Math / 670 Writing
SAT IIs: 640 Ecological Biology / 660 Chemistry
Essay topic: Not fitting in with the "right-brain" and "left-brain" stereotypes</p>

<p>Courses:
All "honors;" rigorous in comparison to nearly all public (and even specialized) high schools in NYC. APs consist of AP World (3; mandatory) and AP US (2; forced into it). As a side note, there are no AP arts at my high school and the only AP sciences are environmental and psychology, neither of which I'm taking. Instead of a regular English class, all seniors at my high school take a course called "Humanities Seminar 101" at the college for their fourth year of English. </p>

<p>Courses this term:
Hum Seminar, Calculus (one term), Genetics, Government, Science Research, Environmental Science 111 (at the college)</p>

<p>Anticipated courses next term:
Hum Seminar, Anatomy & Physiology, Economics, Science Research, Cell Biology & Physiology or General Chemistry I (at the college; may change)</p>

<p>Activities/ECs/Awards (not that great, I know):
- Latin Certamen Gold medal (spring 2007)
- Cross-Country/Indoor/Outdoor track (2005-2006)
- Science Olympiad (fall 2006-ongoing); total of 4 regional medals
- Science Research (fall 2006-ongoing); entered NYCSEF in '08 and now in '09; entered Intel STS this year
- HIV/AIDS Research Lab internship (July '08 - ongoing/August '09)</p>

<p>Could you tell me my chances for the following schools? </p>

<p>Kenyon College; ED II (top choice; visited & had an interview that went well)
Bucknell University
Clark University
Denison University
Wesleyan
NYU Arts & Sciences
Cornell Arts & Sciences
UPenn Arts & Sciences
SUNY Geneseo (fairly certain I'll be accepted)
SUNY Binghamton (safety)</p>

<p>As far as I know, I'm the only one from my high school (class of about 260) who's applying to Kenyon, Bucknell, or Denison, and one of a handful (< 5) applying to Clark. We also have a display of the class of 2008's acceptances/rejections/waitlists, and I tried using that to gauge myself, but it doesn't work for Kenyon, Bucknell, Clark, or Denison (no one applied), while I got scattered results for the rest. A LOT (I really do mean a lot) of students from my high school apply to NYU and to SUNY Binghamton.</p>

<p>Cornell: I've been told I can get in, but looking at the class of 2008's results, I think I'll be waitlisted at best (only acceptance had a 96 GPA and an average SAT score of 740; the two waitlistees had a 95.5 GPA and a 96 GPA along with a 710 SAT average and a 670 SAT average, respectively). (18 non-ED applicants)</p>

<p>NYU: NO idea whatsoever. They've accepted someone with an 86/87 GPA and 590 SATs, accepted someone with a 96 and 710 SATs, waitlisted (only one) someone with a 93 GPA and 760 SATs, and both accepted and rejected a lot of people in between. (41 non-ED applicants)</p>

<p>Sorry for the double-post, but I missed the editing time limit: </p>

<p>SUNY Binghamton: unpredictable, but... about 99% sure I'll be accepted. They accepted a 96 GPA with 740 SATs, and accepted a 75.5 GPA with 510 SATs, waitlisted about 11 people and rejected 11 (scattered). (54 non-EA applicants)</p>

<p>UPenn: Rejected an 87.5 GPA with 660 SATs, accepted a 93.5 GPA with 650 SATs, waitlisted a 96 GPA with 670 SATs, rejected a 95.5 GPA with 710 SATs. Those were the only four applicants in 2008. I'm not sure what to think...?</p>

<p>Wesleyan (in Connecticut): It's supposed to be difficult to get into... but they didn't reject anyone from '08. They waitlisted an 89.5 GPA with 650 SATs, but accepted a 95.5 GPA with 710 SATs, a 92 GPA with 660 SATs, and an 87 GPA with 690 SATs (only four applicants). So I don't know what to think, either.</p>

<p>Also, uh... Wesleyan's deadline was supposed to be January 1st. I sent in my application on the evening/night of December 31st, but a few days later, I received an e-mail telling me that my application fee was refunded. Did this mean my application was too late...? I haven't called them yet, but I was under the impression that colleges kept the money you paid even if your application was too late and therefore would be discarded...</p>

<p>Your GPA could hurt. You should be fine for all cept Cornell, NYU, Kenyon, UPenn being your reaches. I think ur a match for bucknell, and i think u can def get into Kenyon depending on your essay. Good luck.
