<p>what year are you in? 2090 is impressive and great chances for ED wash u</p>

<p>senior this fall…u r kidding me…wash u in st. louis???</p>

<p>i dont have a “great chance”</p>

<p>I personally think you have a great chance. With ED, I’d be surprised if you didn’t get in.</p>

<p>WUSTL would be a slight reach in my opinion</p>

<p>what is ED?
and ya i know its a big readch</p>

<p>early decision- if the college accepts you , you have to go.</p>

<p>Also Dreaming, I don’t know about WUSTL in particular, but a lot, perhaps most, schools take out non-core (like your gym) classes when factoring GPA so to WUSTL you might just have a 4.0</p>

<p>ya…im not really worried about my B in gym…its my sat scores…and extra stuff…even tho im in some extra curricular and such…im not really good at it…i never placed in state or get chance to go nationals…so and wash U is one of the really selective…someone suggest i should at least get 2200 before i apply…so wat do u guys think?</p>

<p>Never listen to those people that say you have to get a certain score before you should apply. You should apply no matter what if you like the school. WUSTL is selective but well below HYP. I think you have a good chance, even better with a great essay. WUSTL has a reputation for being a place for Ivy league rejects and not being as good as it markets itself. Therefore, I think the applicant pool is not as good as other places. You will be at least midpack. Don’t worry.</p>

<p>Yeah, I’m going with everyone else. Despite your having a lower than average SAT and being Asian you have a great chance. If you don’t have a great chance then neither do we. So, you are 100% innnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!!!</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>pff…don’t worry about it…a 3.98 is REALLY HIGH</p>

<p>alright…thanks guys for the advise and encouragement…what are my chances at somewhere higher…like the lower ranked ivy leagues</p>

<p>WashU ED is easier, just like Cornell ED, with 1300s on old SAT= safety jacket.
but if you apply RD, you’ll get waitlisted with like 1500s or 2200s</p>

<p>Yeah I don’t think a lot of people ED at WashU so it is prolly easier than other EDs.</p>

<p>Yeah I don’t think a lot of people ED at WashU so it is prolly easier than other EDs.</p>

<p>which one would be better wash u or hopkins if i intend to study medicine…and which one owuld be harder to get in</p>
