<p>Spots:
sigh...this is a very sad field....once i hit high school I really didn't get the chance to be involved in sports...
last time i participated in sports was in 7th and 8th grade...and that was track and swimming....T-T</p>

<p>Um, what colleges do you want to be chanced for?</p>

3

<p>I want to apply to Harvard, princeton, university of Chicago, stanford, wesleyan college, etc…but fear what i’ve done is not close to what is going to be looked for…</p>

4

<p>bump…plz chance i’ll chance you back…</p>

5

<p>Um ok you don’t have SAT’s Yet, but I’d say looking good. By the way dont just join a sport because you don’t have one yet. All those AP’s… do you go to a prep school or something? Cause thats amazing if you dont, my public school wont even let you take an AP your sophomore year and only offers like 3 honors. Don’t worry about your PSAT, they’ll probably never know, you just cant get scholarships for it.</p>

<p>Otherwise I think you have great chances!
Chance me?</p>

6

<p>I think you have a good shot at all those schools, looking at your gpa I expect your SATs to be a very good score. Don’t worry your in good position ;)</p>

<p>thanks for chancing me!</p>

7

<p>thanks for commenting ^-^, much appreciated! anyone else? 0.0</p>

8

<p>I think you have a strong shot! You also might want to try the ACT as well, some students do much better on the ACT vs the SAT (or vice versa).
I think if you demonstrate whatever it is you have a passion for in your essays, combined with a solid test score, you’ll be a great candidate for any school!</p>

<p>I dont think you will have a problem getting into Chicago… they really like people with personalities… so hopefully you have one…</p>

<p>please chance me…</p>

<p>GOOD LUCK!</p>

<p>Your course load is really impressive and you have strong ECs. I agree with posters above and that you shouldn’t just pick up a sport to have it on your apps. Take the SAT and do your best and should be in a good position for the schools you’re applying to.</p>

11

<p>You’re well on your way to the schools that you wish to apply for. If you want Harvard, Princeton, Yale… all the Ivy Leagues, then you need to get a 2200+. Then, with a great essay, you should really be able to get into one of the top Ivies. Good luck and thanks for chancing!</p>

<p>Oh and Ni Hao :]</p>

12

<p>very impressive!!!
Harvard - low reach/high match
princeton - low reach/high match
university of Chicago - match
stanford - match

13

<p>your stats are looking amazing, especially since you’re still a junior… just write amazing essays and you’ll do fine for every one of those schools :)</p>

14

<p>Wesleyan-In/Huge Match
Chicago-Match
HPS-Reach
Good Luck:)</p>

15

<p>If you get SAT scores 2200+ and continue your excellent work, you’ll have a great shot in pretty much every college.
Harvard, Princeton, and Stanford are still reach though, as they are for everyone.
University of Chicago - match
Wesleyan - match</p>

16

<p>you have an amazing chance! good luck!
and the good h.s. might help. where do you go?</p>

17

<p>I think you’ll have a pretty good chance in every college you want to apply for, you just have to improve your SAT a bit. :D</p>

18

<p>Harvard - Low Reach
princeton - Low Reach
University of Chicago - Match
stanford - Slight reach because you’re out of state
wesleyan college - Match</p>

<p>The Ivies are extremely unpredictable, Good luck with them!</p>

<p>I do need more scores to give you a better estimate of your chances. What scores you do have are decent, but you’ll need significantly higher than a 2000 SAT (assuming your PSAT score is indicative of your SAT) to get into the schools you want. Courses look fine. Your EC’s are OK, but nothing stands out. I’m not familiar with too many of your summer programs.</p>

<p>Harvard, Princeton, Stanford - high reach (as it is for most)
Chicago - reach
Wesleyan - not familiar with them, but I imagine you’re a match</p>

20

<p>Harvard, Princeton, and Stanford are reaches for anybody, but you’re definitely a strong competitor.
Chicago is a reach/slight reach, but I think you you have a good shot.
Wesleyan is a match.</p>
