<p>Hi, I'm wondering what my chances are of getting into princeton/an Ivy League.</p>
<p>I am a junior currently. </p>
<p>My current GPA (unweighted) is is 3.97 and (weighted) well above 4.0 </p>
<p>I take the most rigorous classes possible-including Calc BC as a junior. </p>
<p>I got a 31 my first ACT with little studying, planning on retaking it for sure one more time, possibly twice. </p>
<p>I speak Russian fluently, I study German and Japanese at school. </p>
<p>Extracurriculars:
Mock trial: since freshman year, 3 letters
Robotics: since sophomore year
Cello: since I was 5 years old, I'm in school orchestra
Oboe: since 5th grade
Irish dance: since I was 8. I have competed both nationally and internationally. Have many awards, etc.</p>
<p>What is your weighted gpa range? and are you planning on taking SATs? for your current ACT score, you cannot make it into princeton. However, if you bring it up to 34+, you have a better chance. Your gpa seems in the right range for princeton, but you need to bring up ACT scores A LOT</p>
<p>I think my weighted is between a 4.1 and a 4.2, maybe around a 4.18. My school only weights AP classes, not honors classes.
I don’t think I’m going to do the SAT, but I will do some subject tests. I honestly prefer the ACT, and I did do it plus writing. I will for sure bring my ACT score up a lot, I’ll try studying really hard!! I really didn’t study for my first try.</p>
<p>Since your school doesn’t weigh honors, i think that a 4.18 is fine, but in my school, the only people getting into princeton have 4.5-4.6+ gpas (we weigh honors as 4.5 and ap as 5). I do feel that it is still a reach for you, but you do have a chance. If you study a lot, your ACT score will probably go up, but keep in mind, princeton accepts only near-perfect people.</p>
