<p>Thanks a bunch for your time.</p>

2

<p>I’d love to hear your thoughts. Ideas, anyone?</p>

3

<p>excellent chances…'nuff said.</p>

4

<p>good chances.</p>

5

<p>The writing stands out, so I’d say chances are average bordering on good :slight_smile: Isn’t Multivar. Calc a semester course, lol?</p>

6

<p>Well MIT is pretty impossible unless you’re like a valedictorian, have a perfect SAT, and are involved in that math, technology, science geeky stuff</p>

<p>I think you can get into Berkeley, Carnegie Mellon, and Cornell, but I dunno if ur strong enuff for the likes of Stanford, Harvard, Yale, & Princeton…a little too top heavy.</p>

<p>not true, it is more random than that. I think it is more about how involved you are in EC’s. Look at the graph, there was an acceptance at less than 1500/1600. (green = accepted, blue = deffered\waitlist, x = rejected)</p>
