I think you have a decent chance. But, it would really help if you could bump up your SAT scores a bit. Good luck!

Yeah, these are the 2007 stats:
SAT Critical Reading: 580 / 690 (25/75%)
SAT Math: 620 / 720
SAT Writing: 580 / 680

# ACT Composite: 26 / 31
# ACT English: 25 / 32
# ACT Math: 26 / 33

So pumpkins, yeah your scores could be better (also, I thought you couldn't split up your score report from colegeboard, as in, if you send SATI, SATII automatically goes along with it). Why don't you try taking the ACTs, you might get luckyand if you don;t, you can just not send it in.

Collegesound10, from the brief stats you put, looks like a pretty good chance.

I'd agree with casegirl...

Those stats should get you in. From what I understand Case seems to have a relatively high acceptance rate. What's interesting though is that with the high acceptance rate, most kids here were very good students in high school. So by extension, this would lead to the conclusion that most kids who apply here are already very good students and those who wouldn't get in don't bother applying. It's really quite interesting. Good luck!

Case's application pool is self-selective.
The following link might be interesting to CWRU hopefuls:

What do u guys think my chances are?

GPA 3.4 (4.0 math and science GPA)
Rank: top 50%

Work load: 1 ap last year, 5 this year
ACT: 29
SAT II: math 2 740, Chem 780.
Extracurricular:
Varsity Swimming
Varsity Track
Science Olympiad
Research at Case over the summer.
Volunteer at a free clinic.
Cultural leadership roles.
Location: Cleveland, OH

I intend to do pre-med.

I don't know if this helps, but my dad is employed by Case, and my brother graduated from Case. Don't think Case would consider that Alumni relations, nor do i want to rely on them.

Your class rank is the only thing that would hurt you, but otherwise I would say you are in.

And the relations do help, even if just the slightest.
