<p>Its a little hard to judge without a standardized test score. UVA and UNC-CH are very hard to get into OOS, and Duke is hard to get into no matter where you live. Im not sure about William and Mary, so I wont comment on that. </p>

<p>Your GPA is good, and with all those sports it looks like you are packed with EC’s. My only concern there is that if you are not going to be a recruited athlete, your EC’s seem a little scattered and show little concentration on an area of interest. </p>

<p>How many AP’s does your school offer? How rigorous is your schedule compared to the top students at your school? In most schools, one AP and all honors is not a very rigorous schedule, but it may be for your school.</p>

<p>Its hard to chance a Junior, but I would say UVA, UNC, and Duke are all reaches.</p>
