<p>Ok thank you so much for clicking. Right now I'm a Junior and thinking about colleges. Here are my grades...</p>
<p>I go to a very small school with not that many AP classes offered (only 50 kids per grade). Also, I took the most rigorous schedule (actually pushed my schedule past the most rigorous)</p>
<p>Rank= 1or2/50
Race: White Male</p>
<p>Freshman:</p>
<p>History B+
Honors Physics A
Honors Geometry A+
Honors Algebra II A+
Latin I A-
English A</p>
<p>Sophmore:</p>
<p>History B+
Honors Chemistry: A (5)
AP Calculus AB: A+ (4)
Latin II A-
Honors English A-</p>
<p>Junior</p>
<p>APUSH (B+)
AP Stat (A+)
AP Calculus BC A+(teacher told me she would give me a 100)
AP Physics B (private class, no grade- (5))
Latin III (B+)
Honors English (B+)</p>
<p>Senior</p>
<p>AP Latin
Linear Algebra
AP English
AP/Honors Biology
Electives...</p>
<p>Stats:</p>
<p>Math I 670
Math II (800)
Chemistry 760
Physics (800)</p>
<p>SAT1: (2150+)</p>
<p>*The parenthesis indicate the most likely score...I tried to be reasonable. </p>
<p>ECs (which I'm lacking):</p>
<p>Latin Club (4 years)
Math Team (4 years/ captain 2 years)
Ceramics (3 years)
Baseball (4 years)
Basketball (4 years/ varsity 2 years)</p>
<p>I'll probably apply to these colleges:</p>
<p>CalTech (First choice)
MIT
Stanford
Princeton
Brown
Harvard
Cornell
Boston College
Boston University</p>
<p>Thank you soo much and please give me tips on how to improve app.</p>
<p>your grades aren’t that stellar, but if you actually get those scores your anticipating, then you might have a chance at the ivy leagues. why don’t you try a few more schools other than your main list full of ivies?</p>
<p>Take more SAT II’s and start a major fundraiser ASAP to balance out your weak EC’s</p>
<p>I think 3 SATII’s are enough. I might be able to do Latin, but I heard it was hard. </p>
<p>Any other suggestions?</p>
<p>Brutally honest eh ?
CalTech (First choice) - reject
MIT-reject
Stanford-reject
Princeton-reject
Brown-reject
Harvard-reject
Cornell-maybe
Boston College-good chance
Boston University-good chance.</p>
<p>Ok maybe that was too brutal.</p>
<p>Why apply to Caltech? Aren’t you doing business (from what I’ve seen from ur previous posts?</p>
<p>@GreedisGood : i don’t mean to be a jack@$s when i said reject to 6/9 of your colleges. I am saying it cause I am looking at it from my highschool’s point of view. I am in the college class of 2013, going to be a sophomore at a UC. Most people who got into the colleges you are asking to be “chanced” towards had a 4.0 UNweighted,or very close to it. They had SAT scores in the 2300 + range and most still go rejected. Now you might be saying well I am ranked #1, or #2 and that’s why I took it into consideration and gave you a maybe at Cornell and a good chance at BC and BU. My year’s graduating class was a decent size (~600) and out of those only 2 got into H, 7 to P, 1 to Caltech (another who got deferred then rejected scored the highest mark in the physics bowl- this shows you right there what Cal tech is asking for), 5 to S, 3 to M and 2 to Brown. </p>
<p>Good luck mate!</p>
<p>With a 670 on Math I you will have a very hard time getting into Caltech. If you get that up to a 750+ you will have a much better shot. Even so you don’t have a lot of math/science ECs so your essays would have to really convince the adcomm that you’re passionate about math/science.</p>
<p>get that 800 on math2 and physics.</p>
