<p>Whatsup. Junior living in the state of Illinois attending a private, catholic, military academy that sends some kids to a few prestigious schools (we get a lot of kids that go to U of I). I'm looking at some good schools and think that I have a fairly good shot at getting in, but then again I am kinda new to the whole system so any (ANY) input would be helpful and if anybody out there got into any of the schools listed below, it would cool if you posted you're SAT I, ACT, GPA, and any Subject Tests. My stats include:</p>

<p>Ranked 1/130 (for now, probably between 3-7 by senior year)
GPA: 3.84 unweighted, 4.74 weighted
SAT I: 2260 (690 CR, 800 M, 770 W)
ACT: 34 (35 M/S, 34 W, 32 R)
Subject Tests: Pending (Chem, Math II, US-H, Physics)</p>

<p>National Merit Commended Scholar
National Honor Society
Math Team
Science Olympiad
JROTC Battalion Logistics Specialist (my primary extra-c)
Leadership Bowl Team Captain
ACS Chemistry Olympiad
250+ hrs community service
Campus Ministry</p>

<p>I'm applying to:
Columbia
Cornell-Early Decision
Johns Hopkins
Rice
Duke
UNC-out of state
Vanderbilt
Georgetown
and some fall-backs, haven't decided which ones.</p>

<p>If anybody's got any input I would SO appreciate it, thanks.</p>

<p>Sounds like a fine list. Just make sure you have at least one sure-fire safety that you wouldn’t hate going to. You are an excellent applicant, but those are also challenging schools. Aim high, low, and in the middle :)</p>
