Chance me for Cal and Stanford?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hey guys. Before I begin, I realize the ambiguity of the college admissions process and and in the end it's not about what's said on the forum but what the university decides.</p>

<p>My dream schools are Cal and Stanford, and was wondering how strong my app would look when applying.</p>

<p>SAT: 2250
Grades: I've taken no regular classes throughout my high school career and have not gotten below an A-.
10th- 1 AP and 5 honors
11th- 4 AP and 2 honors
12th- 4 AP and 2 honors
Sports:
I play on the varsity golf team and am by no means the next Tiger Woods, but I have a passion for the sport, regardless of how good I am or will be.
ECs:
I started a technology website that has gathered a considerable following. I also volunteer heavily for one non-profit which pays for college tuition for those in third-world countries. I feel I am personally connected with the organization and I have a story to tell about it. I also am part of DECA, a business club, and I go to most of their conferences and am reasonably involved. Furthermore, I volunteer for TiE50, a contest that helps recognize start-ups and it is through the program that we've managed to raise $2 billion for the various companies. I've done it since freshman year and hope it will show my entrepreneurial flare. </p>

<p>How do my chances look at Cal, Stanford, or really any top school for that matter.</p>

<p>i hate to do this but the two schools that you listed are both high reach for any qualified candidate. it is tough. there is no guarantee.</p>

3

<p>Your scores are good, EC looking good too.</p>

<p>Chances are not bad at all, but of course they are unpredictable schools.</p>

4

<p>I would say that you will probably get into UC Berkely, but I am an in state person and know of people who got in with a lot less everything. If your essays are good, then you will definitely get in.</p>

5

<p>Stanford is a total wild card. Cal is a little more predictable and you should definitely get in there.</p>

<p>I think you’re in at Cal. What are your SAT Subject scores? Those are important, especially if you will be applying for an impacted major. Stanford is a wild card of course and a crapshoot for everyone. Good luck!</p>
