<p>Hi, just wondering if anyone could give me a rough estimate as to my chances at Columbia</p>
<p>Currently a junior at a competitive private school, in top 5 in class seeing as how my school does not rank numerically</p>
<p>White Male, (but I'm also a first generation Croatian national, so dunno if thats worth anything)</p>
<p>Freshman Year: Took most competitve schedule offered to freshmen (Alg. 2, Honors and some seminar classes)</p>
<p>Sophmore Year: Took most competitve schedule offered to sophmores: (Honors English II, AP Stats)</p>
<p>Junior Year: I'm in all honors or AP's w/1 study hall (AP US, Honors Spanish IV, AP Chemistry, Honors PreCal, Honors English IV which means I'm taking the AP English Language test, and Honors Green Campus which is an application class that deals with environmental issues affecting our school)</p>
<p>Senior Year Schedule (tentative): AP Euro, AP Spanish, AP Comparative Gov., Political Issues, Honors Physics, AP Calc. BC, AP English, and a Study Hall</p>
<p>GPA: About a 4.4-4.6 W, 3.8 UW</p>
<p>SAT: 680 M, 700 CR, 760 W (taking 2 more times)
PSAT: 219 selection index, so possible National Merit
Taking ACT in April and SAT II's in May</p>
<p>EC's:
-Member of 3x State Champion Varsity Wrestling Team
-2x State Qualifier in Wrestling, took 4th this year
-Freestyle+Greco State Champion

<p>Summer Plans: Living with a host family in Argentina for a month, working, probably going to Junior Nationals for wrestling again</p>
<p>Will probably have solid Recs from good teachers who know me and I can usually write a good essay when it counts</p>
<p>Just wondering what my chances would be at Columbia, I would apply to Columbia ED and have visited about 4 times to sit in on classes and do the student lunch etc.Thank you for reading and giving feedback if you did!</p>
