<p>Looking to get into some pretty competitive schools. Stanford's my top choice, love Harvard, Berkeley, etc.</p>

<p>Only a sophomore, but if I continue on my current path, can I get in to Stanford-level schools?</p>

<p>Advice greatly appreciated!!!</p>

<p>Raise your SAT to 2200 at least. You will then have a shot at all the ivies. All will still be reaches except Cornell (high match), but you will greatly improve your chances.</p>

<p>Great academics, could use some more work experience or volunteering (but only do it if you’re going to enjoy yourself, not cause it looks good) I think you’re in the range for those schools it’s just a matter of tossing your hat into the ring and seeing what you get out of it.</p>

<p>Thanks for the advice! </p>

<p>I will definitely try to raise my SATs to 2200. But what schools am I looking at if I don’t?</p>

<p>Also, I’m worried that I will not get all A’s with my Full IB schedule in the next two years. How will this affect me?</p>

<p>Finally, are my EC’s good? Need I do any more or find more of a focus?</p>

<p>I think if you improve your SAT’s you should be good! Chance back?</p>

<p>kobe123358 do you think i can get into stanford if i improve my scores? or am i just competitive there? </p>

<p>and i just chanced you back :)</p>

<p>Stanford is too unpredictable to tell. Usually I think you need a super special skill like piano to get in (my piano teacher had a couple students go to Stanford because there piano playing was very good.)</p>

<p>makes sense :slight_smile: i’d say thats what debate is for me but its still nothing super unique or special… hoping for the best though :)</p>

<p>Bumppppppppppp</p>

<p>Bumppppppppppp</p>

<p>LOL you say it’s for a friend then…</p>

<p>Your friend’s schoolwork is good…keep that up…
Besides, bump up your SAT a bit…or give ACT a shot!</p>

<p>Test scores are really low for those and application is a little scattered in general.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
