<p>Hi! I am currently a high school junior looking for some advice. I know CC is usually full of questions about the ives and similar schools yet I am looking for help as a totally average student. Are my college choices realistic? Will I get into these schools? Feedback and tips are much appreciated! </p>

<p>My Stats:
-3.5 GPA out of 4.0 (My semeseter average was 3.75)
-I have an upward trend in GPAs
-A,B student
-Practice ACT score range between a 26-28 (I took the ACT last weekend and plan on getting my results early).
-Attending an All Girls Private Catholic College Prep High School.
-Varsity Dance Team 2 years (On the team for next year also).
-Editorial Staff of school newspaper.
-VP of French Club.
-Debate Team.
-Peer Tutors.
-Student Council.
-I also dance at a studio outside of school.
-I have a summer job and a one day a week position during the school year.
-Volunteer regularly.
-Part of GFRVOS (an organization for teens against drugs and alcohol).</p>

<p>Other Info:
-My school does not offer class ranks.
-I am planning on majoring in Chemistry.
-I have also taken many honors classes throughout high school and I am starting with a few AP courses for senior year.
-I will graduate with 4 Years of French (2 of which are honors/AP), 4 Years of Honors/AP English, 4 Years of Math, 4 Years of Science, 3.5 Years of History/Social Studies, 4 Years of Theology.
-I have also recieved Honor Roll Awards for first and second honors.

<p>Your GPA is pretty much on target for the schools you would like to attend. Your ACT may be a tich low for the U of M and UW if your practice test holds true. U of M and UW are both getting harder and harder to get into. Try and get some more leadership roles in your resume. Good Luck! Chance me please!!</p>

<p>Thanks so much! I agree those two schools are my hardest. I’m hoping I’ll have some sort of alumni advantage with U of M. Do you think that’s realistic to expect?</p>

<p>So I got my ACT scores back. I got a 26 and a 27 with writing (A 9 on writing). Any feedback? Any suggestions? I plan to take it again.</p>
