Chance Me!!!

<p>General Info
State: PA
Gender: Female
Race: African American
School: I started at a small Christian school, but then transferred to a cyber school.</p>

<p>Objective Stats
GPA: 4.0 (My school does not weight GPAs.)
Rank: Top 5%
ACT: 33 composite
Subject Tests: I plan on taking Math II and Lit
AP Tests: 5 on Psychology so far (My school limits the number of APs you can take.) I will be taking the AB Calc test next week.</p>

<p>I'm taking the most rigorous schedule I can. I also have pursued dual enrollments. I'm currently taking/have taken Latin, ancient Greek, and math classes outside of my normal school.</p>

<p>Awards
A few small piano awards, and I scored summa cum laude on the national latin exam</p>

<p>Extracurriculars
Classically trained in piano and oboe- multiple music groups (one of which I founded), a little bit of professional playing experience for oboe. I plan on submitting art supplements for both instruments to Princeton.
Church activities-in the worship band, youth ministry team, volunteer in the nursery
Student Gov- in a couple school groups with leadership positions </p>

<p>Summer Activities
Teaching at a chamber music camp, a music festival for piano at the New England Conservatory (which I had to audition to get into), a couple classes, possibly a summer job this year</p>

<p>Plans for Senior Year
AP courses, college courses, a couple dual enrollments probably</p>

<p>My Reach Schools Are...
Princeton
University of Pennsylvania (I am a legacy there.)
Harvard
Swarthmore (possibly)</p>

<p>I am applying to other schools that are easier to get into as well. I know it's impossible to know for sure whether you will get into a school with an acceptance rate of <10%, but I would like to have some feedback :)</p>

<p>The most reachable of the four is UPenn; however, if you want the benefit of legacy there, you might want to ED there.</p>

<p>Princeton: Reach
Harvard: Reach
Swarthmore: High match
UPenn ED: High match
UPenn RD: Reach</p>

<p>Oh, does legacy status only factor in for ED?</p>

<p>Does anybody else have anything to add?</p>
