<p>I can’t really chance you, being a freshman and not knowing enough. But I have to say- your extracurriculars are very focused (compared to others on CC). I would work on them a little bit more- perhaps try to get into the summer programs for math? Get and internship for engineering companies? Invent a new math formula?</p>

<p>The last one was a joke, but just get involved in more math-science related activities and you’ll be fine. </p>

<p>Rate my ecs? Thanks in advance. :slight_smile:

<p>Actually I’m a sophomore, lol.
The governor’s school is the only one I was allowed to go to because of my parents.
I’m actually trying to find a few internships, but it seems it’s rare.</p>

<p>Applying again to SAMS, then adding RSI and MITES next year.</p>

<p>Well, the HYP schools are not always certain so I can’t really give input on those but you seem to be doing well. Get your ACT score up a little to be very competitive and being an URM will definitely help you out. One question: What is your unweighted GPA?</p>

5

<p>about a 3.9 if I remember correctly. and because of all of my courses being weighted along with online APs being weighted, my GPA will probably be at an all time high.</p>

6

<p>If you keep your grades up as high as they are now, I can almost guarantee that Virginia Tech is a shoo-in for you. I would call it a safety.</p>

7

<p>Ok, because I’ve been in love with that place since I was about 9. But I’ve been in love with MIT since I was 6.</p>

8

<p>LOL I meant that I’m a freshman and don’t know enough, haha. I know you’re a sophomore, it states it pretty clearly in the title :)</p>

9

<p>oh lol. My apologies.</p>

10

<p>Grades kept up, slightly higher scores, you look golden.</p>

11

<p>hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm let’s see. Black, IB Curriculum. You’re in any where. Without question. You could honestly write “**** (Insert HYPS MIT)” and still get in.</p>
