<p>I accidently misposted this in college admissions, so I'm gonna put it here since I can't figure out how to move it over. Thanks a ton CC community!!</p>
<p>What are my chances at Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Duke, UVA, Georgetown, Emory, Michigan, Wake Forest, and Dartmouth? You don't have to answer for all these schools, mainly Duke, Princeton, and Harvard.</p>

<p>Now here is the main thing:</p>
<p>My extracurriculars are my highest point.</p>
<ol>
