Chance me for Cornell, JHU...?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hello everyone, I am currently a junior in high school and I've been thinking about collge and what schools to apply to, where I stand with chances, etc. so any help would be appreciated. Cornell University is my first choice so I'm likely to apply ED, also I'm a legacy there so I'm hoping that helps.</p>

<p>Ethnicity: Caucasian
Gender: F</p>

<p>SAT 2050 (I'm taking it again)
SAT II: US: 750, and I'm taking Math I and II and Chemistry later</p>

<p>GPA 3.8
My school doesn't rank/ do percentages
I'm taking all honors/ AP classes</p>

<p>Awards:
-Winner of various other awards for riflery on the state, national, and international levels
-Commended scholar PSAT (I'm guessing since I got a 210 and cut off is usually 205+)
-AP Scholar with Honor</p>

<p>EC's (I'm just going to list the more important things):
-4 time Junior Olympian in precision riflery
-Founder/President of my school's Research Club
-Editor of schools newspaper for 2 years
-Interned this summer doing indp. research at a lab for 8 weeks - I am going to compete at science fairs later this year with my work
-Owner of my own organic produce and jam business, I make roughly $3000 a summer
-National Honors Soc., French NHS, and Science NHS
-Volunteer at local hippotherapy center for the disabled- 100 hrs./year, and member of Township Rec. Committee
-Took 3 courses over the summer for credit to skip ahead in school</p>

<p>Schools I'm looking at:
Cornell
JHU
Barnard
Boston College
Tufts
Northeastern
Northwestern
Penn</p>

<p>I am interested in STEM as of now -possibly engineering and chemistry- but am not sure on much more then that. If you have any suggestions on other schools that might be of interest I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks!</p>

<p>2050 is right on the line for Northeastern and below the line for all the others.
You need to be thinking 2200+ for those and even higher for a STEM program.</p>

<p>If you got a 210 PSAT, you can get a 2200+ SAT and be really really competetive for all of those schools. Even without it, your ECs are super impressive and you stand a good shot!</p>

<p>Personally, I think some of your ECs are pretty unique (riflery, research stuff, small business) and the others are solid, so that should really help you out!</p>

<p>Cornell: Low Reach
JHU: Low Reach
Barnard: High Match/Low Reach
Boston College: High Match
Tufts: High Match/Low Reach
Northeastern: Match
Northwestern: Reach
Penn: Reach</p>

<p>Chance back!

<p>I think you have a good chance of getting into all of those colleges if you improve your SAT to anything above 2200 and get a few more awards. EC’s are great though! </p>

<p>Chance me back please!
