[quote=Anonymous]OP, no one can tell you for sure whether the higher rigor will offset the slightly less impressive uwGPA. It may help a bit but there are no guarantees - remember that all these schools reject about 80-90 percent of applicants (95% in the case of Brown; that's probably a lost cause.) You definitely need more targets and safeties! Remember also that the LACs approach admissions as building a class that is balanced in all different ways - gender, geography, ECs, etc. And of course with most LACs, ED can be a game-changer. Since you mentioned the Maine LACs remember that the Bowdoin and Bates have been TO for decades, so the strong ACT may not be as helpful there as elsewhere. Good luck![/quote]
