Caltennis, I've seen your request for "chances" on several college sites. I'd suggest you narrow your choices on which school fits you best, not which school you'd get into.

limabeans: I've actually already applied to all of these schools. I know chances threads aren't going to be completely accurate but I just thought I'd see what other people's opinions were. I researched all of the schools extensively and visited nearly all of them. I don't take applying to college lightly, why would i spend so much time on the applications if i wasn't serious?
