<p>Hi, I'm fairly new here. I'm applying to quite a few reach schools...</p>
<p>Applying to: UofM, MSU, MIT, Rice, Stanford, Brown, Northwestern, Princeton.
For: Computer science or Bio depending on school</p>
<p>This is just an outline, I might be forgetting a few things:</p>
<p>GPA: 4.23 weighted, ap out of 5, honors 4.5
SAT: 2230
SATII: 770 bio, 780 chem, 770 math ii
ACT: 35
AP: Lang, Bio, Chem, Calc AB all 5's
Current coursework: ap lit, gov, us. Physics and calc iii dual enrollment.. </p>
<p>EC's: Eagle Scout, Varsity Swimming and Tennis Captain, 8 Varsity Letters, Plays violin in high level youth orchestra, research assistant at local univ, volunteer in hospitals emergency department, alumni of mathematics institute at local university: got lots of college credit in 300-400 level courses</p>
<p>And that's all I remember, I'm on a mobile device, sorry if it's cluttered. Thanks!</p>
<p>You have a great shot at UMich (assuming that’s what the M stands for), but the ivies are unpredictable - they turn down tons of qualified, excellent, accomplished applicants every year so there’s just no way to know! Good luck though.</p>
<p>No glaring weaknesses, very strong curriculum, and varied and interestingn ECs. The only thing missing that I see is research experience which the MIT’s and Stanfords of the world like for sciences and CS folks. Also, I am assuming you did not use an ED or SCEA at any of these schools. </p>
<p>My guesses: MSU and UM (assuming in state) = safeties; if not UM OOS is a match; Rice and Northwestern (50/50), Brown slightly lower than 50/50 but I suspect Brown will like your varied list of achievements and interest in the sciences and so I think you have a sold shot there even RD. Princeton and MIT - reaches (less than 20%) due to lack of a wow factor that makes you stand out from the rest of their strong applicant pool.</p>
<p>I do work as a research assistant at a local university, but I haven’t had anything published. My professor is writing a rec for the MIT app though… </p>
<p>I am in state, I applied ea for uofm, by my essays were kinda iffy. So Im a little worried. But thank you for responding!</p>
<p>Thanks! I’ve also been looking into the Rice/Baylor program, but I doubt I have any chance of getting in. Some of the threads on here are intimidating. Any idea on stats needed to get into combined admission programs?</p>
