<p>I'm applying to stanford and Yale, my sat score was 1640 which is horrible but in taking the ACT soon and a couple SAT II, I'm also taking 2 APs this year (junior), and 4 next year and my ecs include fbla, student council, 200+ hours of community service, and I do indoor and outdoor track. my GPA at the end of 10th grade was a 3.78 (unweighted) and I'm getting mostly b's this year but my final averages will probably be low a's (a few a+'s) because I gonna try extremely hard now that I know which colleges I want to go to and what the expect. What are my chances of getting accepted if I get my SAT scores up to a 2100 or the equivalent that ACT score and raise my GPA to a 3.9?</p>
<p>Both are high reaches, even with those improvements</p>
<p>Of course try your best and you may have a chance, but nothing is guaranteed.</p>
<p>Reaches. Get those schools out of your head unless you have an extreme hook. Think of some other schools to stop yourself from going mad</p>
<p>You’ll have a shot, but they’ll definitely be reaches. Of course, they are for everyone, so go ahead and apply since you never know what’ll happen. Just be sure to have 1 or 2 safety schools and 1 or 2 schools whose admission stats match yours.</p>
<p>They’re both reaches right now with your SAT. If you do get it up to 2300+, or ACT’s to 35+, and take a load of AP courses next year, your chances will improve slightly. Right now, you look like an average high reach candidate.</p>
