NYU, CORNELL, RUTGERS- in (over 90%)

Princeton- good shot (55%)

Notre Dame- likely (chance > 80%)

Upenn-decent also a pretty good shot (85-90%)

* assuming you have great essays and recs that mirror your outstanding stats

use paintball as a hook because it is very unique, and with your package, you should be reeling in those fat envelopes!

Good chance at NYU, Rugers
Average chance at Notre Dame
Likely chance at cornell and UPenn

Your Sat1 and Sat2s are good. What happened to your uw especially after getting 3.9 and 4.0 in 10 and 11 grade? The essay should compensate provided you have a good hook. You should write about martial arts because you pratically own it (10 years). You have paintball at your school? What's the "Community Service President?"


You have a good shot.

paintball is not a school thing, I single handed made about 50 kids buy guns and I hold games. We are good.

uw 3.4 is because of feshman year of 2.4

paintball is not much but i'm good enough to join the college paintball team. Martial arts , i love and willing to join team or teach.
