<p>I'm looking to major in Economics and minor in Political Science. I just want to know which schools to apply to. These are on my list:</p>

<p>Stanford
Columbia
Berkeley
UChicago
Michigan
Michigan State
Nevada</p>

<p>How many of these are out of the question? I just had a really awful end of sophomore/beginning of junior year, both academically and personally. I honestly can improve my GPA to ~3.6 and my SAT to 2250+ by the end of junior year. In addition to chancing, if you could, can you suggest other schools in the field of economics/political science that would be good fits? Thanks a bunch!</p>

<p>I think that you’ll get into most of these schools- Stanford, Columbia, and UChicago might be a bit of a reach, though. Those schools expected high unweighted GPA and SAT scores 2250+.</p>

<p>Can you chance me?</p>

<p>I’ll have to get an updated transcript. Thank you though. Are there any other matches you can suggest? They’re all safeties or reaches, it seems.</p>

#6

<p>a 3.35 unweifghted gpa is very low for UofM. definitely a reach as well.
i’m in the same boat as well haha. I have a 3.5 UW and a 2330 SAT and I don’t think I’ll get in.</p>

#7

<p>What if I got it up to around a 3.6? It’s possible for me.</p>

#8

<p>How do u ave a 3.3 weighted and a 4.05 weighted??? I have 3.7 weighted 4.0 weighted</p>

#9

<p>Well we have 8 classes at my school (I personally have 9), and six are AP. maybe that’s it.</p>

#10

<p>U got a chance at Berkley</p>
