<p>I'm a high school sophomore taking 7 classes: Sophomore World History, Sophomore World Lit, AP Calculus BC, AP Computer Science, Chemistry Honors, Journalism and Spanish 3. Currently valedictorian. 4.0 unweighted GPA, 4.43 weighted.</p>
<p>I got a 231 on PSAT and I have been averaging 780-800 on my SAT II's. </p>
<p>President of three clubs on campus and very skilled piano player. Member of two Honor Societies.</p>
<p>Just wondering how I would compare to other applicants when senior year comes around (I know I have to keep everything up).</p>
<p>Keep up the grades and get a good SAT score (which I assume you will). The biggest issue I see is your ECs, they are good, but nothing about them makes you stand out (you have to remember that ivies see tons of people with the same numbers). Improve your ECs a bit and you will have a decent shot.</p>
<p>Pretty solid stuff there. Work on something “unique” that really reflects who you; you may have it in your clubs, but it’s hard to tell right now. Try for research. Academically you look very prepared for the Ivies. Good luck!</p>
<p>EDIT: I placed as a finalist in an international Science and Technology competition (Conrad Awards). Going to NASA Center in Houston to give a presentation on my project (hopefully I’ll win) and I also won a $5000 scholarship. How does that affect my chances?</p>
<p>Also started my own club (Multivariable Calculus) which now has 30 members.</p>
<p>You’re a great candidate, but some of the Ivies have far too many applicants who are as qualified as you. All the schools except Cornell are going to be low reaches (Dart, UPenn, Brown) to reaches (HYPC) if you maintain your grades and rigor of ECs.</p>
<p>Cornell - Match
Brown, Dartmouth, Penn - High matches
Yale, Princeton, Harvard - Reaches</p>
<p>Since they are competitive, try other great schools too. Like CMU, tufts, Northwestern, Ameherst, Uchicago etc. (depending upon your choice of major ofcourse)</p>
