<p>Can only comment on a few of your choices but my D had somewhat similar stats as yours... briefly 2010 SAT's, 4's and 5's on 5 AP's, Sat 2's 680 and 750, regents exams all into the 90's to 100.great EC's..sports, leadership, etc. Anyway she got WL at Bucknell, Hamilton and Conn, which was a little suprising. declined all wait lists. accepted into Lafayette, Syracuse newhouse, Suny Bing,Villanova and Boston college, accepted with merit money at Loyola (MD), Gettysburg and F&M. Going to BC</p>

<p>What we discovered was that college admissions were unpredictable, D friend with much lesser stats and less rigorous academic load was accepted ED 2 to hamilton. D was accepted into some colleges like BC which rejected or w/l other students with way more impressive stats</p>
