Realistic?

Chance Me / Match Me
1

<p>I have a 3.2 uw (got 4.0 junior year) and on SAT I got 600 crit, 630 math, and 550 writing (will redo if I get 28 on ACT). I was class treasurer in sophomore year, but I only went to one meeting because they never told me when they were. I’m doing an internship at a marketing company in the summer and I applied for a thing that lets me post articles in the local newspaper in exchange for a little $$. I’ll be surprised if I don’t get into that. I’ve been a member of the SCA (society for creative anachronism) for four years and I’ve won an archery competition or two in it. I got a CTE (career and technical education (I think)) certificate for getting a “B” in Forensic Science. I’ve been doing some community service lately and I expect to have 100 hours by the end of summer. And by the way, I’m a white male who lives in Oregon.
The colleges I’m looking at are these:
William and Mary (High Reach) major: finance
NYU (High Reach) major: finance
Occidental (Reach/legacy)major: diplomacy and world affairs
Colorado College (Reach/cousin is grad)major: economics
Syracuse (Match) major: finance
American University (Match) major: international relations
Bentley (Match) major: finance
Boston University (Match) major: international relations
Quinnipiac (Safety) major: international business
Robert Morris (Safety) major: undecided</p>

<p>Are these realistic views on my chances of getting into these schools?</p>

<p>I’m also think about
Babson College(Match) major: International finance
Is it a reach because of my weak writing?</p>

<p>a lot of schools discard freshman gpa, do you know what your gpa is without that year? Also, probably knowing difficulty of school/classes would help.</p>

<p>I’m not sure what it is without freshman year, but it’s probably a lot higher because thats the only year I got a D (eww french 2). This year I took AP Gov and Honors Algebra 2 as my tough courses. This summer I’m planning on doing APUSH and AP world history to help make my course load look a little more rigorous. I’m also gunna redo French 2 to make up for the D and possibly french 3 next year. Also this summer I’ll do teen court, which means that I’ll be giving advice/being a juror on juvenile offense cases involving first-time offenders.</p>

<p>Whats CTE? And how do you get it? that would help in chancing you.</p>

<p>CTE stands for Career and Technical Education. I got a certificate for it for satisfactorily (got a B) completing my Forensics class. At my original school I would’ve gotten a seal on my diploma, but I don’t think I’m going to get one at my current one since they don’t do CTE.</p>
