<p>I think you will have a decent chance at the ivies as long as if you have a hook you’ll get into one or two.

<p>“Do you think I’ll be accepted?”</p>

<p>Possibly Cornell?
All other are reach to high reach schools.</p>

<p>I got into Harvard Early Action with an application that was only slightly better. The 6 on the essay doesn’t matter much because of the 36 on English. (I had a similar situation, my scores were 36 and 8). Cornell, Penn, and UChicago are reasonable, the others are stretches but not out of the question.</p>

<p>How could I improve my application?</p>

<p>You are lacking in community service, that will be your main weakness. Congrats on the great ACT score though!</p>

<p>Oh I forgot community service!!
I have over 150 hours from doing mission trips to the Navajo reservation in Arizona (where we painted houses and ran a summer camp), and from creating and running a drive to collect soccer uniforms to send to impoverished children in Mozambique, Haiti, and South Korea.</p>

<p>In my opinion you have a decent chance, though I hope you apply to a few back up schools.</p>

<p>no one can tell you your chances…</p>
