<p>Right now I'm a high school Junior beginning my second trimester <em>no I'm not pregnant my school does trimesters instead of semesters for no real reason</em>. I was wondering what my chances would be for getting into my current preferable list of schools:</p>
<p>PennState
RPI
NorthEastern
BU</p>
<p>Reaches:
Dartmouth
Caltech
UC Berk</p>
<p>My credentials are:
GPA: Around a 3.8 give or take a few
Class Rank: 9 of 360 or so
Current AP Classes: Physics and Stats
Intended AP Classes: Calc, Lit, Chem
PSAT Score: Perfect Math overall 200
Haven't taken ACT or SAT/ SAT II yet but my physics teacher is promising me an 800 on the SAT II Physics.</p>
<p>Extra Curricular Activities:
Math Team: 3 years thus far, JV "Captain" and on varsity *Captain isn't really official and determined by meet and we are the 2nd best Math team between NH, Mass, and ME</p>
<p>Latin Club</p>
<p>Astronomy Club</p>
<p>Band: Jazz (Guitar), Pep (Alto Sax), Concert (Bassoon), 3 years</p>
<p>Sports:</p>
<p>Swim Team: Captain as Junior, holding 100 fly record, 100 free record?, and 50 free record, also on the fastest relay in school history, Freshman year states 9th, Sophomore year states 7th, this year gunning for top 5. Swam Varsity All Years</p>
<p>Cross Country: will have 2 years, on the best cross country team for my school ever, slow but present :P. Ran JV</p>
<p>Lacrosse: just did this freshman year, hated it because of the team mates (Imagine the song tick tock being played out every day by about 90% of the team in a male form and you'd understand). Played JV</p>
<p>Awards:
MVP X2: Swim Team
Most improved: Swim team
Unsung Hero: Cross Country <em>I got this for stopping a meet to assist a kid having a seizure then finished the race</em>
Magna Cum Laude: National Latin Exam</p>
<p>Community Service:
I'll have around 100 hours in a short while I've done</p>
<p>Private tutoring <em>Actually raised their grades up 10 points from C's to B's!</em></p>
<p>Pep band at football games</p>
<p>Political Phone Calls <em>I apologize I know they're annoying</em> for a political party I will not disclose (It's mainstream no worries I'm not fascist or socialist)</p>
<p>I helped out with the middle school baseball team</p>
<p>I also went to a leadership camp thing over the summer called "RYLA" through the rotary club.</p>

Gender: Male
I want to be an engineer. Haven't completely decided on which type yet but leaning towards mechanical.</p>
<p>Notes:
I have a friend who works at admissions at Dartmouth and I'm getting a peer rec from a current student there.</p>
<p>My only B was in Algebra 2 but all my other math grades are solid <em>A-'s or higher</em></p>
<p>My only not honors/AP class was "advanced functions A" which ended up being harder than the honors class. I took it because AP Stats was during this period. I got an A over all in the class.</p>
<p>I have a fairly successful youtube channel with a couple videos hitting over 20,000 views and my most viewed hitting around 50,000. I figure that might be something to briefly mention on the apps?</p>
<p>During the little free time I have I enjoy calculator programming and working on unsolved math problems <em>196 algorithm currently</em> I also spend a fair amount of time "Gaming"</p>
<p>Assume money isn't a factor in any colleges. </p>
<p>Thanks guys for letting me know :D</p>
