Admissions chances, please help!!!!!

<p>Hi I am going to be a senor in high school this fall and I am in all honors and ap classes. But I don't think I can be able to get into a 55 below ranked college in the u.s. what you guys thinks?
GPA: 4.0
ACT: 28 (but im retaking it in fall)
I only have one sat subject test (chemistry)</p>

<p>AP Classes taken:
AP World History (4)
AP Psychology (3)
AP United Sates History (4)
AP Language (4)
AP Statistics (4)</p>

<p>AP's that I an going to take:
AP United States Government
AP Chemistry
AP Spanish
AP Literature</p>

<p>Sports: Track
Community Service: none (but view out of school activity)
Clubs:
Math team
Science Olympiad
FBLA
Out of school activity: I work/helpout everyday after school at family businesses because they need me to waiter or translate or deliever etc etc. this is where most of my time goes after school sometimes instead of studying because family comes first. After school I have to deal with the restaurant and studying which takes away most of my time. This is the reason I believe that my grades in school is my full potential. I never had the time of a normal kid after school.
What are my chances at below 55 ranked schools such as university of Maryland, Ohio state, university of Michigan, university of Miami, nyu, stony brook university, Binghamton, any of the ivy leagues. Thank you.</p>

<p>Rank is just a game played by a magazine to sell copies. Most of the components they use to calculate rank are irrelevant to undergraduate experiences. Some of the others might be irrelevant to your specific experiences.</p>

<p>There are better ways to choose a list of places to apply. We need to know more about your preferences for a school and a major. Universities have different schools that sometimes have different entrance requirements and degrees of selectivity. You’ve listed a number of schools; what do they have in common?</p>

<p>Another important consideration is your financial ability to pay. Getting into a place you can’t afford is definitely no fun.</p>

<p>By the way, your job is a huge plus. You’ve shown commitment and responsibility. Are you planning to live away from home?</p>

<p>Actually I have a bit of schools on the bottom. But again schools that I want to consider are university of Maryland, university of Miami, university of Rochester, Ohio state, university of Michigan, new York university, university of washington, Binghamton, and stony brook. My reach schools are the lower tailed ivy leagues. How are my chances? And thanks for your help!</p>

<p>And it’s is more or less a job. I don’t get payed because its family but I have experience translating from english to chinese or vise versa, as I’ve done it all my life. I have a lot of business experience as I have been around the restaurant since I was 5 or so. And yes I consider going away to be more independent but not so far away (California far).</p>

<p>This should be moved to the chances forum</p>

<p>university of Maryland- match
university of Miami (FL) - low reach/high match
university of Rochester - low reach/high match
Ohio state- match
university of Michigan- reach oos
new York university- reach
university of washington- match
Binghamton - match
stony brook - low match</p>

<p>@barrk thanks for the reply! But do you think my out of school experience and activity impacts the admissions?.</p>

<p>For Private schools and top 5 publics (like michigan) yes</p>

<p>For most public schools its not a big deal</p>
