<p>I think your stats are solid and your work experience is a big plus. I’m not sure about most of the colleges on that list, but you seem like a solid candidate. For Princeton, its a big name school, and most schools of its caliber seem to randomly select applicants from its pool (so its a low reach, like any other IVY for most people).</p>

<p>You are most likely in for all of them, except Princeton. I can’t guarantee your acceptance there, because it is an ivy, but you have as good of a chance as anyone.</p>

<p>Your extracurriculars are a bit lacking. there doesnt seem to be much focus, others definitely have more activities. that being said, the work experience is pretty great. and like gsfan01, its a toss up, at this point. the only thing holding you back is lack of EC’s.</p>

5

<p>I am also planning on joining history honor society and math honor society next year. Would this help my chances much more?</p>

6

<p>Not if it’s your senior year. Colleges will probably think that you joined just to improve your resume, and honestly, those clubs are ones a lot of ppl participate in. But again, great work experience and essays will get you places.</p>

7

<p>I’m going to be a junior next year.</p>

<p>You look like a solid applicant. Princeton is the only iffy school, but I think you have a good shot there if you make sure to stand out in your essays. </p>
