<p>if you dont want judgement, dont bother to ask us for chances. OK, so we know “nothing” about your chances? then dont waste our time and ask us. As of right now, your application is not impressive. your EC’s are alright, nothing that overcomes your PSAT scores. even as a sophomore, 165 is nothing to brag about. i worked my butt off when my PSAT was a 1960 in my sophomore year and i got it up to a 2290. its easily possible for you to bring your scores up to average NU level, but it will take some effort. just work on those areas and continue to be a good student. i am surprised, in a way, though, that you’re in the top 1% of the your class when your unweighted GPA is 3.74. 3.74 is good, i mean, but top 1% of the school? anyways, just work on the scores, and your shot in getting in will be solid.</p>
