<p>UVA- in no problems
UChicago Duke- reach (just like everyone else)
Berkeley- High match</p>
<p>You’re ECs are really great. Just like… Well all the rest of your app. You’ll do well wherever you end up. Make sure you are looking for a good fit as well. Too many people are chasing prestige for prestige’s sake without taking into account how they would fit in to the colleges they are applying for. </p>

<p>Uchicago does not have an engineering major at the undergrad level. What would you major in there? ECs are above average, but rank and ACT are not. Is there a reason you have not taken many AP Classes?</p>
<p>@kiddo64, re: UChi: I’m probably not going to go at all, actually. I just dream of moving back to Chicago and was considering sending in an application. </p>
<p>I actually considered 11 to be quite a few AP classes… I would have more, but my school doesn’t allow you to take APs freshman year and only 1 AP sophomore year. </p>
<p>My rank would be higher but I didn’t take higher weighted classes freshman and sophomore year, as opposed to my other classmates. My rank will go up after this reporting term. </p>
<p>I’m actually a junior in high school (sorry for the lies) The AP scores are estimates based on performance in the class (other than HuGe) and the ACT is a plan. The subject tests are based on performance in Chem/Math class, teacher estimates, friend performance, and test taking ability. This is a very reasonable estimate as for where I will be by college next year. Everything else is true. Senior course load classes are ones I’m for sure taking next year…</p>
