Chances at these schools?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hello! </p>

<p>I am a white high school junior, and my school is on the trimester system. Here are my stats:</p>

<p>GPA: 4.0 W, 3.9 Unweighted (All A's in every class except for two B's in Chemistry)</p>

<p>AP: AP Bio (took in sophomore year), currently taking AP Calc AB and AP Psychology, and I plan to take AP Gov, AP Calc BC, and maybe AP Physics in senior year.</p>

<p>SAT: I have not been able to take it yet, but I signed up for the October 2012 test. However, I have taken numerous practice tests and my scores always range between 1750-1950 (550-600 CR, 610-670 M, 590-680 W). I know these scores are low, but I have a lot of trouble with these types of tests. </p>

<p>SATII: Biology (700), and I am going to take the Math 2 test this year.</p>

<p>EC's:
I played on the high school volleyball and wrestling teams. (I may drop one of these to do swim though).
JSA Club Member (Similar to debate team)
Founder and President of the Ultimate Frisbee Club
Coach of local rec volleyball team (for middle school kids)</p>

<p>Now for the schools I am looking at.
Safety: CSULB, not really sure what else (maybe some recommendations?)
Target: San Diego State, USD, Cal Poly SLO, UCSB (again, open to recommendations)
Stretch: Stanford, UCB</p>

<p>Thank you for reading my post and I really appreciate any replies and/or recommendations!</p>

<p>It is sort of an issue that you have not taken the SAT yet, but anyway…</p>

<p>The only one I know enough about is Stanford. It seems unrealistic, you would need like a 2100 at the lowest (and that would be low). Also your weighted GPA is low which implies that you transcript does not show rigor.</p>

<p>Agree with above and only way to dramatically improve your SAt scores is to take plenty of timed practice tests, preferably proctored. If you look around you will find who offers them. Minimum 8 tests.</p>

<p>Yea I agree with both of you. Thats why I have it as a stretch school, as it does not seem realistic. However, if anyone has some insight on the target schools that would be greatly appreciated. If not, I still thank you both!</p>

<p>This is September and you have not taken either SAT or ACT and what are you bumping for. Sorry, no body can chance you without those scores and if they do, it will not be very helpful.</p>
