<p>Very solid overall, obviously. Well-rounded ECs make you diversified at the top academic schools. Are you being recruited in either sport by any of the schools mentioned?

<p>I think you have an excellent chance everywhere… Pretty hard to find someone like you…</p>

<p>The hardest ones would probably be Stanford, Harvard and Princeton… I think you will get into at least 3 of the Ivy leagues + Stanford if you apply to all listed.</p>

<p>Everywhere else, probably one rejection.</p>

10

<p>Thanks, my top ones are Harvard, UPenn, University of Washington in St. Louis and Columbia.</p>

11

<p>Sheesh man! You have absolutely NOTHING to worry about, leyley! I almost am certain you are getting into all.

<p>okay so you have had the best stats out of anyone i have viewed on College Confidential (largely cause you’re african american). With that said, I think you’ll get in everywhere. But for Harvard, Princeton, and Stanford, I think you will get into only 2 out of the 3. </p>

<p>very impressive.</p>

<p><a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/820270-chance-me-please-thank-you.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/820270-chance-me-please-thank-you.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

14

<p>excuse me? Do you mean out of all the AA’s you’ve seen?</p>

15

<p>Great stats, btw.</p>

<p>Princeton, Hahvahd(haha), WashU [waitlisted/accepted]
Accepted everywhere else…</p>

<p>What shocks me, I guess, is that you’re not applying to Brown. You’re stregnth’s are mostly Fine Arts based, and you’re a minority so you might want a bit of diversity.
Check it out; based on what you’ve written, I think you would REALLY enjoy you’re college experience there. Trust me. :)</p>

16

<p>John Hopkins, match
University of Washington in St. Louis, match
UW, in
Columbia, high match/low reach
Harvard, no way
Duke, high match
UPenn, low reach
New York University, in
Northwestern, match/in
Boston College, in
Stanford, low reach
University of Chicago, high match
Princeton medium reach</p>

17

<p>with all your stats and ECs as well as being a minority i think you should get into all of your choices. with harvard being the only slight reach just because its harvard.</p>

<p>well done! you must have worked really hard! and good luck!</p>

18

<p>John Hopkins - in
University of Washington in St. Louis - not sure
UW - in
Columbia - match

<p>chance me back? plzzz</p>

19

<p>I think you have an EXCELLENT chance at ALL of these schools (with stanford & harvard it can be a coin flip - but you’re certainly well qualified). I’m almost positive you’ll get into at leat one of the upper ivies.</p>

<p>chance me back please : )</p>
