Hey, I was just wondering if anyone could give me some insight on colleges I should apply to (I’m a Junior). I know that there are a lot of subjective parts of the college admission process, but I just want to have an idea of what colleges should be my match and reach schools solely based on my stats. Here it goes.
SAT I: 2230 (800 math, 740 reading, and 690 writing 10 essay). I also got a 221 on my PSAT so I’ll probably be at least a semifinalist (Pennsylvania)
Unweighted GPA: Based on my school its a 3.96 but I got 3 B+'s so I think that’s wrong. I tried to convert it to a normal scale and I got something like 3.81
Weighted GPA: My school has a weird system so its like 4.97. On a system based out of 5, I think I have a 4.3 or 4.4
Class Rank: I wasn’t looking into competitive colleges as a freshman and sophomore so my class rank was 39/558 at the beginning of the this school year. It is now 19/558 after one semester and it will likely go up.
AP Classes: Due to scheduling errors, I was not able to take AP Chemistry this year but I was able to take AP Statistics. Next year I hope to take AP Chem AB, AP Calc AB, AP Calc BC, AP Micro, AP physics AB, and AP physics BC. My school has 4 classes one semester and 4 new ones the next semester.
EC’s: I know these are subjective so I will just list them.
-Robotics Club (FTC) since 10th grade. Co-Captain this year and most likely Captain next year
-Anchor Club (Community Service) no position
- Peer Tutoring in Math since 10th grade
I’m very committed to Robotics Club and Tutoring so don’t criticize me for not having a lot of EC’s
I’m definitely more math, science, and engineering oriented as compared to English and the humanities. I live in Pennsylvania so Penn State will most likely be my safety. Could you just give me an idea of what colleges I would have a chance at. All types of colleges would be appreciated (Public, Private, LAC’s, Ivies). Thanks
P.S. I would probably need financial aid for most colleges. I think that I’ll apply to Princeton just for fun.
