These two seem to be particularly TTT-friendly.
where do you wanna go? Blanket T7-14 -- 90% sure you'll get one.
EDIT: forgot you were the Penn guy -- 50% if you spin your ties well.

If he goes for an interview or meeting with the school, my opinion is that he should wear some Ben Franklin spectacles and bring a kite with him. When they ask why you brought a kite, you say that its a family thing.fatduck wrote:ftfymaf70 wrote:Currently a TTT.

Around top 3% at school ranked 35-45, ranked after first semester (I heard this may help). Good undergrad GPA, not a ton of solid work experience but have some good community involvement/leadership.

Out of state resident, but UVA undergrad...
I've also got 2 Calis and got those professors to write my LORs.
NYC-area if that helps for CLS and NYU.
Can I get a hallelujah?

Re: What are your chances?
Haha, I think UVA undergrad qualifies as significant ties to VA. From what I've heard, UVA just doesn't really take anyone who's not from VA or at a VA school. 50%.Vronsky wrote:Any idea of what I can do to boost my chances?lawloser22 wrote:GULC EA - 50% (75% RD)Vronsky wrote:T2 in the 80s.

The two CALIs/LORs should help, as should being at a NYC-area school, but probably not a ton. 40-45%.
Not much more you can do other than keep your grades up. Maybe a sweet summer gig? Great PS?

Re: What are your chances?
I'll bite.
TTT - Midwest
3.67 (PT) on 2.6/2.7 Curve
#1 in class
Good softs, and significant work experience.
Planning on applying to:
GULC (EA), Emory, SMU, Vanderbilt, Duke, GW, Cornell, UH, Columbia, UM-Ann Arbor (Maybe BU, UV)
If I keep my number 1 spot, I'll even give YHS a shot.

I've never heard of anyone going TTT to C/N but I'm sure it's happened. I'll say 35%.
