Applying to top schools with a 3.6 UW GPA?

Hello. I am planning on applying to many top 25 schools, however, with a 3.6 GPA. I have taken a rigorous schedule and by the time I am done with high school will have taken 14 or 15 AP classes and rest honors. Do I still have a shot, and if so, any advice on improving my application?

What are your SAT/ACT scores? There’s a big difference in selectivity among the top 25 (HYPS vs. USC/CMU/UVA etc). Make sure you apply to reaches, matches, and safeties…

SAT/ACT scores will be important, along with your ECs. You’re not necessarily out of the picture, but it will depend heavily on those other factors. What’s your weighted GPA and what’s it out of?
