I know not unless you are a college admission administrator most people have to "guess" what their chances are for certain colleges. Many people says a 3.43 GPA is average.
To give you some background info, most of my classes were Honors and AP classes, and just a few reg. courses here and there throughout my 3 years of high school so far. I took one SAT so far and got a 1920, I'm going to take it again in October and maybe for the third time in November. I ended up taking the ACT's and got a 29. If it helps I live in NJ, Volunteered 100+ hours, joined several clubs and were dedicated to them. I won a couple of Best Poetry awards during high school, and one of my poems was published in a poetry book called Tracing the infinite. I am sure that I got the best recommendation my teachers and counselor could give me, and I will work hard to write a great essay.
Now that I'm going to be a senior in HS this year with many other people, I'm looking for which colleges to apply to, and trying to determine which is a reach safety and match. Sometimes I feel so down whenever I hear people with 3.7+ GPA, which they earned no doubt about it. Still after I hear those GPA's it makes me wonder what kind of college would accept me.
I was wondering if these colleges would be a reach, safety, or match for me. Before some of you answer I do not want to go to community college and transfer.
Rutgers
Villanova
Boston University
Lehigh
Montclair
TCNJ
I know most of them are great schools and tough to get into. Out of all of them Villanova is my first choice.
