The problem

College admissions is a black box.

Everybody knows the recipe: a strong GPA, high test scores, standout activities. That’s directionally right. But nobody tells you how much each one is worth.

Is your application stronger if you’re president of the debate club? Or should you spend those hours taking your SAT from a 1450 to a 1550? When everyone applying has the same scores, GPA and activities, those choices decide who stands out.

We’ve gathered tens of thousands of real admissions results so you can stop guessing.

Both went with better odds, and the higher SAT score with the bigger jump. The right call for you depends on your profile and your schools.

Self-reported results from real applicants, one result per applicant per school. The debate comparison covers applicants with a 1450+ SAT. It shows how results differed, not what caused them.

What helps most depends on how much time you have. Pick where you are.

FAQ

Common questions.

Chance me compares your grades, test scores, coursework, activities and recommendations with each school’s bar, which is set by how selective the school is. You see your estimated chance, where your scores fall among the school’s admitted students, each part of your application rated out of 100, and what would most improve your application. It’s an estimate, not a promise, and it can’t read your essays.
