<p>Id like to have opinions on my admission chances at some schools
My info:
Junior Caucasian Male in small Catholic school in Pennsylvania, both parents went to college</p>

<p>GPA: 4.05 weighted? (unsure about this one, my school has a really confusing system. Let's just say i average a mid to low A)
Rank: 7/154
Difficulty: My junior and senior schedules were the hardest possible at my school
SAT Math: 790
Crit. Reading: 750
Writing: 700
SAT Subject Tests: Math II, Chem, U.S. History pending
Probably will end up being a National Merit Finalist</p>

<p>Not a well known high school, pretty much everyone goes to small local colleges</p>

<p>EC's: Varsity Football three years
Varsity Baseball two years (not getting recruited for anything)
Concert Band 4 years, section leader 3 years
Church youth group 3 years
National Honors Society 1 year
Peer Ministry senior year
Quiz Bowl 1 year
Student Council freshmen year
Hospital volunteer service
over 100 hours of general service
I have a job, if thats even on the app...?
I also play guitar and piano outside of school</p>

<p>Schools: Princeton (only applying because i'm a legacy)
Dartmouth
Cornell
Tufts
William and Mary
Notre Dame
Georgetown
Villanova
Duke
Boston College
U. Penn</p>

<p>Opinions on schools you know about would be much appreciated</p>

<p>You have a good shot at all of them. All you can do is try. Good luck!</p>

<p>You just may get into Princeton because of all the ivies, they take the most legacies. Dartmouth 50/50, your rank is low for them given a not competitive school but your scores (except writing) are higher than median–you’d need a great app-- and good shot at the rest.</p>

4

<p>Its hard to say with the ivies, you will get into one of them
Others you are definitely in</p>

5

<p>You can’t predict Princeton, Dartmouth, Cornell, and Penn. </p>

<p>Otherwise I think all the other schools are attainable.</p>

6

<p>wow so far much more positive than i expected.
If anyone has any more thoughts on specific schools, i would appreciate it</p>

<p>Cornell loves EC’s, and you have a great list. I had what I thought were low stats, but great EC’s, and I got in early. Good luck!</p>
