<p>what up girl?</p>

<p>Not alot, besides trying to get used to this site, you?</p>

<p>oh, i was mocking you. because you obviously came here to get your chances yet i ask how do you do</p>

<p>you will discover sooner or later that this board is full of miserable jerks like me (oh how i flatter myself)</p>

<p>actually, i think this board is full of nice people, and i’m the exception. i’m infamous for my brutal honesty and smelliness. check out this ongoing discussion of me: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=361934[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=361934&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>bantering aside,</p>

<p>for amherst and georgetown, you have bad rank, mediocre sats, and generic, boring ECs. this may be hard to believe, i understand, but i suggest you check out the past acceptance threads on these schools. compare your own stats against those who were accepted/rejected and you’ll have a good idea of where you stand</p>

<p>good chances at the others</p>

<p>I’m ok with mocking. It doesn’t particularly bother me. If you’re offended because of an internet enigma, it’s sadddd. honesty is good. smelliness…not so much.</p>

<p>seeya, miserable jerk.</p>

<p>thanks for the advice, I appreciate it.</p>

<p>American - safety
BC - high match
BU - low match
Amherst - big reach (very small, very selective)
GWU - low match
NYU - match
Fordham - low match
Geneseo - safety?
Hamilton - match
Georgetown - reach (if you take the SATs again and get them up to around 2200 you will have a good chance)
William and Mary - match</p>

<p>Your EC’s seem pretty solid, although I don’t see that much leadership. You have a decent shot everywhere but Amherst. </p>

<p>How about you rank me now?</p>

<p>*correction, I’m not number ten, im in the top 10-15%, sorry.</p>

10

<p>I might move Hamlilton up to low reach. I just feel its way more slective than most people believe, but thats just me.</p>

11

<p>Bumping for good measure…Thanks for the help, guys.</p>

<p>and Kman-- I knew it was selective, but I didn’t think so much so. My eye Dr. reccommended it to me (he was a vale. some odd years ago) and thought I had a decent shot…but then again, it’s impossible to tell.
thankssss.</p>

<p>which school in Georgetown…?</p>
