<p>don't worry about giving bad advice. any comments would be appreciated.</p>

<p>is there any more info I should give? I think my numbers are good but to be honest I know very little about college admissions. I barely even thought about college during high school</p>

3

<p>i'm not qualified to give advice but it seems that your ECs are not so strong. are you sure you don't have any additional ones?</p>

4

<p>^ I am also a board member of the debate club. student council in 9th grade but I didn't run for reelection because I realized that student council served no purpose. lifeguard during the summer. JETS science team. work privately as an SAT tutor for 6 clients currently(I charge 40$ an hour as opposed to the big name tutors around here who charge 250). i volunteer at my local state park restoring the hiking/running trails and also at road running races. so I did a few other things but I'm not the type to obsessively sign up for things.</p>

<p>I think you have a good chance at all of those man</p>

<p>Nice 2mile time</p>

6

<p>Are you URM (Black,Hispanic). If your are than in everywhere. Add all the Ivies to your list.</p>

7

<p>Good shot at all of them, in at Cornell.</p>

8

<p>i agree with slipper.</p>

<p>You are quite possibly the cockiest, most arrogant person I have ever "read" on these boards (not in this post, but in many others - particularly in regards to the SAT).</p>

<p>However, since the colleges cannot see into your condescending and subsequently contentious personality, you have a good shot. Though you don't seem to do much besides "school." CC/Track captain is a definite plus, though.</p>

<p>It doesn't seem like writing is your strongest subject...</p>

<p>^ choose your flavor</p>
