Chance me Northwestern ED [PA resident, 3.85 GPA, 1510 SAT, economics]

I was thinking 60/40 for Gies but I see the next poster thinks otherwise so again, I’m one opinion but others may be more accurate..or not as I noted we are not AOs.

There’s a lot of kids out there -stronger grades, tests (both SAT and APs), rigor, maybe rural or first gen. State schools - some, like UNC, protect their residents, which you aren’t.

Anyway, I noted outstanding universities you’d get in. Given Emory is need aware and you are full pay, perhaps that helps.

If you want finance, I would apply for finance. It’s not the same as Econ. Not close so not sure why you’d do that.

You may get into some I didn’t mention - shoot your shot and you’ll be fine either way. You, more than anything, will make your success. You can look on LinkedIn - every school you mentioned and most flagships - you’ll find grads in IB. It’s not just the big banks.

You know - take your shot and the official people will give you your answer. Hopefully the LORs are great - and easy too. That will matter at many.

Stop worrying about chancing. Add IU - it’s Michigan but easier - and you’ll be in good shape.
