<p>I think that considering test-grades, you are kind of on the low range for the top schools. I am talking the SATs and APs. but they're not terrible by any means! you've got a healthy handful of extracurriculars too.</p>

<p>I think it would be possible for you to not be accepted to most schools on that list. however, it is also possible that you would get into the majority. it's difficult to say. of course what I say doesn't dictate anything...but you know what I mean...</p>

<p>if you have any other schools that could be safeties that you really liked, you should definitely apply there in addition to what you have. economics is an awesome subject and I'm sure it would be well-taught at most places. I did not visit or research a lot of schools so I can't make excellent recommendations on that, though.</p>

<p>so I hope this post does not sound negative, because you seem to be a good student! good luck!</p>
