Chance me please!

<p>I will be a senior in high school and I plan to apply to Stanford, Georgetown, Cornell, UC Berkeley, UCLA, UC Davis, and UC San Diego. </p>

<p>I am Hispanic. My dad went to Stanford(legacy status?). I have a 4.23 weighted GPA and a 3.86 unweighted. My SAT's aren't great (1970), and my ACT is 29. My SAT II's: Math II(790) and US History(660). I plan on retaking the SAT reasoning, the ACT, and the US History exam. I am in the top 10% in my class.</p>

<p>ACT
Composite 29
English 29
Math 35
Reading 28
Science 25
and Writing I got a 9 on the essay, 28 as the score</p>

<p>In terms of extracurriculars, I have been playing football for 4 years, with 2 years on varsity. Our varsity team had the highest average GPA in our section and I won the Most Academic Award (for highest GPA) on that team in 2007. I am also a sectional scholar athlete and have earned my academic letter. I also played Freshman Basketball.</p>

<p>I have over 250 hours of community service. I volunteer weekly at my local hospital and have amassed over 150 hours there. This past summer I have been helping register voters and other volunteer work for Barack Obama's campaign. I also do other random volunteer work with the football team and with some clubs at school.</p>

<p>In addition, I was a baseball umpire for a youth league for 2 years. I was also a private tutor for two years, tutoring elementary/middle school kids in math. I was also a videographer for the local youth football league(for 3 years), and taped every film of every squad's game. I also was an assistant coach for one of the squads of that organization for a year.</p>

<p>Also, I was in a summer program for gifted high school students at UC Berkeley for four years. There I took challenging courses that I got credit for.
In school, other than football, I am a member of the MUN club and the Spanish club. I have been in the California Scholarship Foundation for 7 semesters and have won numerous school and MUN awards. I plan on starting a couple of poltical-based clubs next year. </p>

<p>AP Scores(so far)
5 in US History
4 in Biology
4 in European History
I will have taken a total of 8 weighted courses(with 7 AP's) by the time of my senior year.</p>

<p>How am I looking?</p>

<p>seriously, as a URM w/ legacy, u have great chances at many almost all of them, including stanford. if u do well on all ur retakes (2200+ SAT, 700+ US and 32+ ACT) u can definately get into 1 of your top 4</p>

<p>Do you think I can get in to my top schools even if my scores don't get up to those levels? I'm expecting they will, but just in case they don't.</p>

<p>I think if you start something like you said you would senior year, that would show leadership and you could with lower scores. Just try to get the SAT 2000+ and I'm sure you will. The URM/legacy will get you in over someone with similar stats.</p>

<p>Ok. Great. Thanks for the help!</p>

<p>bump pls...</p>
