I applied to Northwestern ED and hear back Monday the 15th. I also applied to UChicago EA and hear back either the 15th or sometime that week. I'm so excited/scared
I feel somewhat confident that I'll get in but I really don't know. Reading the people on College Confidential with flawless everything ask if they'll get in really knocks me down. I have a 4.02 weighted GPA and 31 ACT which is great but only average for those schools. Applying early decision and action may have helped me some but there might've been better students who applied those ways than normal application.
If I don't get accepted into either of those I don't know what I'll do. I want to be in Chicago but there aren't many other good options there. I'm considering NYU but I don't know if that's too much of a first step... otherwise I'll probably go to UW-Madison.
