This is another chance thread.

Hello...again. I posted this here a few months ago but I can't find the thread. I updated all the info and would appreciate it if you wouldn't mind chancing my final (knock on wood...) list.

Male
Caucasian
Minnesotan Public School
Major: Business

GPA: 3.5UW (3.5W) (Ouch)
Class Rank: Top 25%

Freshman/Sophomore/Junior Years: NO HP or AP classes.

Senior Year:
HP Pre-Calculus
HP Physics
AP Statistics
AP English 12
Required Classes(History/Health/Foreign Language)

Test Scores:
ACT – 31
SAT – 1330/1930

Extra Curricular: Nothing that really stands out. (Yes, I have a few really minor things and I know this hurts a lot.)

Recommendations/Essay: Average

Please chance me for:

Does this list look good or do I need a safety? (Do I already have one?)

Thank you all for the input and I hope everyone's applications are going well.

bumpppppp?

This looks fishy, because I've never heard of "AP English 12." There is AP English Literature and AP English Composition. Nor have I heard of "HP."
That was a mistake hammering all of the honors classes in after 3 years of absolutely none. If you think you can handle it though, more power to you!

I wish I could say that I knew something about the places you listed, but I really don't. I know you'll get into the U of M and Marquette.
It wouldn't HURT to get one more safety, but it's not essential. If I were you I'd apply to the University of Illinois @ Urbana-Champaign.

Good Luck!

....You don't go to Wayzata by any chance, do you? I wanna meet someone on here who went to the same school as me.

I think you need another safety.

USD is probably a no.
