my chances...

Chance Me / Match Me
1

<p>im a junior and my GPA is a 3.3/4
i’m taking 2 AP classes, and the rest are all the second toughest offered in my school. i’m also talking academic electives, and Calculus as a junior, however, i think i have a C in the class, and it’s not AB or BC.
my ec’s are indian dancing, which i’ve been doing for about 6-7 years
piano lessons, which, again, i’ve been doing for about 6 years
i’m trying to teach myself guitar(don’t know if its important to be said or not)
im involved in about 3-4 clubs, and i plan on getting a job and doing some major volunteer work over the summer
my psat scores were about a 1700, but when i took the practice SAT at a course i got a 2025. i’ll be taking the real SATs in march.
and im a female from NJ and i plan on majoring in premed.</p>

<p>the colleges im thinkin about and wanna go to are:
University of California - Irvine
Boston University
Purdue
Rutgers
Northeastern</p>

<p>thanks!!</p>

<p>By second toughest I’m guessing you mean honors or regular classes, which in my opinion mean very little to colleges.</p>

<p>If you are in-state you are a match for UCI, and I think you have a decent chance at the others.</p>

3

<p>Depends on your SAT I and II scores, good luck!</p>

4

<p>hmm thanks!
im from NJ…so i dont really know about my UCI chances…but do you guys think i can get into BU??</p>

5

<p>how’d you get a 2025 on the prac sat. thought it was in 10’s. and if you’re out of state, it might be hard for uci but you still have a chance cuz its not that hard to get in. gl.</p>

6

<p>well the practice SAT i took was at a course, and it was out of 2400…
yeah thats what i’ve heard…i’ll try it though…thanks!!
i should be able to get into the other colleges though right?</p>

7

<p>i would realllly appreciate any opinions…
thanks in advance!</p>

8

<p>UCI: slight reach
Purdue/Rutgers/Northeastern/BU: reach</p>

<p>based on this info only.</p>

9

<p>thanks for the input!!
hmm so rutgers is a reach for me even though im in-state??</p>

10

<p>innersmile:</p>

<p>UCI: Reach (out of state)</p>

11

<p>okk thats what i thought…thanks though!
what about the other schools…like Boston University, Northeastern, Rutgers, and Purdue??</p>

12

<p>…anyone!!!..please!!!</p>

<p>You’ll need a high SAT score like your practice test to get into BU and Purdue, to offset your relatively low GPA. Rutgers and Northeastern will be easier, but I don’t know if they can be called safeties.</p>

14

<p>thanks!
well i had my college-match meeting with my guidance counselor the other day and she said i’m a strong match for Purdue and Northeastern…but i really want to get into BU, so do you think i can if i get SAT scores like 2000 even though i have such a low gpa?</p>
