<p>So Im a rising junior and today I went to do my schedule and i didnt get to get AP stats. Keep in mind that I go to a small southern high school that offers only 5 APS and I am gonna self-study for two. So here is my prospective schedule:</p>

<p>Honors English 4
Honors Chemistry 2
Honors Biology 2
Spanish 2
Digital Imaging
AP Biology
Honors Pre-Cal
GT American Government/ Econ.</p>

<p>Im planning on self- studying AP Physics B and Pschology or English Lit.</p>

<p>Im currently 1/370
Im African American (if that helps)
I got a 4 on the APUSH test
I havent taken any SAT whatsoever, but Im pretty sure i can get a 2100+
My extracirriculars are kind of impeccable.</p>

<p>My senior year schedule:</p>

<p>AP Calculus AB
AP Stat
AP English Lit.
Spanish 3</p>

<p>(and other honors level classes)</p>

<p>What are my chances? (Keep in mind that Im in South Carolina and not many people there apply to harvard) So I have geography going for me, I hope?</p>

<p>Please Chance Me!</p>

<p>Of course you’re screwed.</p>

<p>Kidding. Why are you taking both AP Biology and Honors Biology? Anyway, no one can “chance” you. We don’t know your SAT scores and all you’ve said about your extracurriculars are that they are “impeccable,” which could be subjective. Your schedule is fine, as long as it’s “most rigorous.” The URM bit will help when you apply, but obviously you can’t rely on it. Work on something that will help you stand out from everyone else.
