Chances? Chances? Don't Worry! Here Is The Ultimate Formula!

Here is my formula for everyone:
[(SAT1 + SAT2 + SAT2 + SAT2)/100]*cumulative GPA = score

GPA:
A = 4.0
A- = 3.7
B+ = 3.3
B = 3.0
B- = 2.7
C+ = 2.3
C = 2.0
C- = 1.7
D = 1.0
F = 0

or use your current un-weighted GPA

this is for Regular Decision

Use the chart:
Stern:
75% - 99% if your score is: greater than or equal to 125
50% - 74% if your score is: 115 - 124
25% - 49% if your score is: 105 - 114
0% - 25% if your score is: less than or equal to 104

College of Arts and Science:
75% - 99% if your score is: greater than or equal to 123
50% - 74% if your score is: 113 - 122
25% - 49% if your score is: 103 - 112
0% - 25% if your score is: less than or equal to 102

Gallatin:
75% - 99% if your score is: greater than or equal to 120
50% - 74% if your score is: 110 - 119
25% - 49% if your score is: 100 - 109
0% - 25% if your score is: less than or equal to 99


100% - don't even ask
75% - likely to get in
50% - 50/50 chance; maybe or maybe not
25% - likely to get rejected
0% - don't even bother posting your stats

it's not useful because it really means nothing. it disregards essays, short answers, recommendations and extracurriculars. please just stop making these nonsensical posts, kjayson7, you're making a complete fool of yourself and you're making some of us pray you don't get in.

you're supposed to rig your own formula so that you have a 100% chance of getting in
