How much will my essays affect admissions? (chance)

<p>OOS (Colorado)</p>

<p>GPA: 4.0 UW with 7 AP classes
SAT: 2070 (700 M, 650 CR, 720 CW)
ACT: 34 (36 M, 36 E, 34 R, 31 S)</p>

<p>I have decent EC’s, including varsity tennis and NHS Vice President.</p>

<p>Basically, not that I’m trying to be a slacker, I’m wondering how hard I have to try on my essays.</p>

<p>Not very hard. But don’t bomb them. Make them acceptable and you will be fine.</p>

<p>^I agree with ICanDivideByZero. You have very strong stats for UW, using your ACT test score.</p>
