What are your test scores? Are your AP scores for junior year predictions?

I think so, as long as your essays show passion

Take note that Purdue University recalculates GPA using unweighted grades from only core classes. http://www.admissions.purdue.edu/apply/coregpa.php
Keep in mind your standardized test scores should be high in order to be a competitive applicant. I’d shoot for AT LEAST 32-33
Here are some averages for accepted applicants from my school (a California College-Prep):
Stanford: GPA- 4.45 ACT-32 SAT (2400 scale)- 2258
Harvard: GPA- 4.57 ACT-34 SAT (2400 scale)- 2213
Duke: GPA- 4.2 ACT- 31 SAT (2400 scale)- 2159
USC- GPA- 4.14 ACT-29 SAT (2400 scale)- 2015
Cornell- GPA 4.33 ACT-31 SAT (2400 scale)- 2152
Purdue- GPA- 3.76 ACT-27 SAT (2400 scale)- 1840
UPENN- GPA- 4.56 ACT- 32 SAT (2400 scale)-2185
Northwestern- GPA- 4.51 ACT-32 SAT (2400 scale)- 2192
Vanderbilt- GPA- 4.49 ACT- 35(!) SAT (2400 scale)- 2288

@FutureUniversity I appreciate the hard work you put in to fully answer my question.

Without your UW GPA, it’s harder to tell, but with your really cool software company (a real + on applications), test scores, and W GPA, in addition to your AP’s, you should be good. I would say Medium is a 50/50 chance, and Low is still possible, just would need a lot of work on your essay. Try to hide or not focus on that one 3 on that AP Test.

Stanford:Low
Harvard:Low
Duke:Medium
USCalifornia:Medium
Cornell:Medium
Purdue:High - with scholarship probably
UPENN: Low
Northwestern: Medium
Vanderbilt: Medium
