IB Predicted grades

Hi everyone,
I'm an IB student from Finland and I will be applying to top schools in the US next year. I would really appreciate it if some international IB students could post their predicted IB grades and subjects and then colleges that accepted/waitlisted/rejected you.

1) Predicted grades? Subjects?
2) Accepted at ---
Waitlisted at ---
Rejected at ---

Hey, I'm Finnish! (: Living in China.

1) Total of 36/42. All 6-7 except Bio, because my Bio teacher is an AP teacher, and COMPLETELY does not know what he's doing and gave everyone 4's or 5's.

2) So far accepted at:
Bard, Skidmore, Hampshire

Rejected at:
Amherst

.... BUT! My school didn't even send predicted scores to any of these.

2) Accepted UPenn

Fin IB, I don't think taht you should base your chance of getting into a school on other people's predicted. Some students with 36 predicted get into princeton while other kids with 40 got rejected. Just to tell you to not think that your predicted grade is all that matter. So be carefull to not put yourself into disapointment

Ooh, I'm curious to see this!

My sister was predicted 39/42 and was accepted (conditional) at University College London and Imperial College London for Biomedical Sciences (she only applied to the UK!!).
