<p>I'm trying to make my final list of colleges to apply to this upcoming fall and I'm wondering if I'll have a fighting chance at the schools I've locked in already. I'd really appreciate any help or criticism! :)</p>
<p>Going into my senior year at a public school in the bay area (CA). Female. White. Middle class.
3.97 UW
4.23 W (should go up next year)
I'm taking every honors/AP class my school offers, more than anyone has ever taken at my school, which breaks my schedule down to:
9th- 0 honors/0 AP/6 regular
10th- 1 honors/0 AP/5 regular
11th- 3 honors/3 AP/0 regular
12th- 0 honors/6 AP/0 regular
A total of 13 advanced classes out of 24, 9 APs
I've had all As until this year in which I got 2 Bs, one in honors physics first semester and one in AP Spanish second semester.
We don't rank but I'm definitely in the top 1-2%
SAT:2050 (730-CR, 650-M, 670-W) taking again in October trying to break 2100 and improve my math score
ACT: 29 (definitely not my best effort, might take again)</p>
