Chance Me: Ivies, Top LAC’s, and Other T20s

You have an unweighted GPA - 4 for A, 3 for B, etc.

I assume the out of 5 includes the 1 Point AP bump.

You have an exceptional portfolio - your odds are maybe slightly better than the average. So if a school has a 6% acceptance, maybe you have a 12%, etc.

It’s still a tough road.

I’m not going to get on your for your list like others. Just because you’ve chosen a major doesn’t mean you need to apply to the top ranked schools in it - and I’ve looked at several rankings and don’t see Rutgers anywhere. Frankly, I’m sure you can get a good philosophy major anywhere (Rutgers included) and I would find the right schools for you.

It is important you pick the right and not just highest ranked schools.

Like everyone - add a few matches and a safety.

Good luck.
