<p>lol when I saw the thread title, I thought it meant you had a 2.0 gpa</p>

<p>You have a great chance everywhere! Your test scores are great and your ECs are aaaaamazing. Affirmative action should help you too.</p>

<p>Obviously the only lacking thing is your GPA. That being said, you still probably have very good chances at everywhere except for Stanford, Hopkins, MIT, and Chicago. Those are still probably low-reaches to reaches.</p>

<p>fairly good chances like the previous commenter said mit stanford hopkins will be more tricky but go for it! best of luck. chance me back? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1572735-chance-me-ed-cornell-please-ill-chance-back.html#post16538063[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1572735-chance-me-ed-cornell-please-ill-chance-back.html#post16538063&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

UChicago (EA)-high match

<p>PS: Chance me back please :3 <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1572592-columbia-ed-top-state-schools-ea-chance-international.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1572592-columbia-ed-top-state-schools-ea-chance-international.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>I agree with @Stanfordmania.</p>

<p>Your chances are all high due to your great testing scores and incredible extracurriculars; I concur with many other users regarding your chances, but question if these schools have more of a holistic view, which would favor your extracurriculars more than a normal application process. </p>

<p>Thus, your GPA may be an issue. But, honestly I think that everything you have done within your high school career has projected who you are FAR more than your grades ever will.</p>

<p>Also, could you please chance me?</p>

You’re a match for most, and a low reach for MIT & Stanford (you’ll probably get in though!)</p>
