My top schools are Williams College, Wesleyan University, Tufts University, Bowdoin College, Middlebury College, Dartmouth College, Cornell University, and University of Va. (my state school).

<p>I don’t know man, your EC’s are stellar but your grades are kind of lacking. Pull up that SAT, try to improve your GPA, and maybe so many of those schools won’t be reaches anymore.</p>

<p>I’m with cabr the ECs are fantastic… If the scores are there you have a great shot at getting into these schools</p>

<p>bump…</p>

<p>Retaking your SAT’s and improving your GPA would help. If you are applying top schools then improving your stats would certainly help. Your EC’s are very good. I would say,
High Reach - Williams, Bowdoin, Middlebury, Dartmouth, Cornell
Reach - Wesleyan, Tufts,
High match - UVA</p>

<p>What are my chances at some of these schools ED?</p>
