<p>Yeah. You are only a Freshman. Seriously, stop stressing! And I’m sorry but your stats are a little fishy. Either you are a remarkable overachiever or you are lying. If I were to chance you based on your credentials I would say you would probably get flat out rejected. Not just because all those schools are crap shots to get into but you seem like another generic highly academic student. You really don’t seem to show much passion for anything at the moment. To increase your chances I would say find a meaningful EC to get involved in (Arts, Sciences, Environmental Awareness) and dedicate your time to it. Maybe then colleges will be able to see the real you. And also how have you already taken 3 AP exams before Freshman Year. I don’t think that is possible either. Are you a ■■■■■?</p>

<p>My last piece advice to you would be to get a life. Don’t be so bent on getting into these colleges because you will be dissapointed in the end. Have a social life, make friends, and make the best out of HS.</p>

<p>Peace</p>

<p>Your only a freshman. Wait. Things could change in 2-3 years.</p>

<p>You’re only a freshman. However, how do you have a 4.0 GPA when you got relatively subpar grades through AP Calculus and others?</p>
