i want to go to a private school and i dont care about how far away it is from home. I want to major in math or engineering, but i dont want to go to a school that has a horrible M/F ratio like a lot of techy schools.

What are my chances at:
University of Rochester
Case Western Reserve University
Northwestern(my mom knows the dean of the math department but this is still a huge reach i know)
USC
University of the Pacific
Florida institute of Technology

or any other suggestions you have for me
if you put your link to your chance page i will chance you back

If you get your ACT up you prob could get into most of those except Northwestern may be a bit of a reach. But you still have a fair chance there.

i think you have a good shot at all of them except maybe northwestern. i don't think that knowing the head of the math department will help you because he's not on admissions. but if it does, then maybe you do have a good chance!

Chance a Georgia Peach for STANFORD and other top schools. I CHANCE BACK

Wow!! You're really great! I think you have chances at all of them.

Please chance me:

Can I get into college with a 2.3 GPA?

You have good ECs and good performance in your high school. I'd only say that you might want to try to improve your standardized test scores (especially ACT, a 30+ does not seem far out of your reach). So considering these facts, I will chance you as this:

University of Rochester
Case Western Reserve University: Good Chance
Northwestern(my mom knows the dean of the math department but this is still a huge reach i know): Fair
USC: Medium Reach
University of the Pacific: Fair
Florida institute of Technology: Good chance

Good luck!!

I would really try and increase your scores, then you should have pretty good chances. You never know, the math dean could have a lot of pull.

Chances at WashU, Cornell, and Penn?

Northwestern: Somewhat of a reach. Try hard for this one.
USC: Mid reach. Maybe a match, depending on essays, etc.
Sorry, I know nothing about the other colleges on your list!
