<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I go to school in Florida and I was wondering what are my chances for the following universities. I would most likely apply for a Chemistry major.</p>

<p>Background: Asian, female, Family with low income (less than 30K), soon-to-be first generation college student.</p>

<p>Universities:
University of Miami
University of Florida
Yale
Brown
Stanford
Boston University
UCLA
UCBerkeley
Princeton
Johns Hopkins
Cornell
Columbia</p>

<p>Unweighted GPA: 4.0
Weighted GPA: 6.467
Top 1% of 1673 students in my class so far (our high school is one of the largest in the state)</p>

<p>SAT: 1960 superscore (770 Math, 610 CR, 600 W)
ACT: 32 (will take again)
SAT BIO: 670
SAT US History: 690
I am going to retake BIO and will take CHEM and Math II in the fall.</p>

<p>AP:
9th: World History (2), Microeconomics (3)
10th: Chemistry (3), European History (2), Psychology (5)
11th: Biology (4), Calculus AB (5), US History (4), Statistics (4), US Government (3), English Language (4)
12th (planning to take): Calculus BC, Macroeconomics, Environmental Science, English Literature, Physics C: Mechanics (maybe)</p>

<p>I took Dual Enrollment classes at my local college: Trigonometry (9th), Business Calculus and Stats (10th), and taking Theories of Personality (11th)</p>

<p>ECs:
Mu Alpha Theta (math club since Freshman year): Secretary (11th) and will become the President. I did place in states.
National Honor Society: (since sophomore year because they do not accept Freshmen) I will become the Treasurer.
Health Occupations Students of America (health club since sophomore year and I compete) Treasurer (11th) and will become Vice President.
Phi Beta Chi (Science club): I participate in competitions.

<p>Volunteer:
At my school's office during the summer (over 400 hours)
Helped out in a Debate competition my Freshman year (50)
Started to help out in healthcare center for the elders this summer.</p>

<p>I am most likely to attend in state unless I get a really good scholarship that can take me out of state. I will apply early action for some of them.</p>

<p>THANKS!!</p>
