<p>My key stats:
-4.0 unweighted GPA
-6 AP classes
-Almost all of the rest are honors classes
-SATS: 1370
-SAT IIs: math 2c: 720, us history 690, writing 680
-Over 500 hours of community service
-Officer in NHS, a community service club and ASB
-community service, internship, and summer programs are all focused on environmental science (this is what my essay is about)</p>
<p>I was wondering if i even have a shot at my reaches:
Cornell
Emory
Stanford
Rice
Claremont Mckenna
UCB</p>
<p>u have a 4.0 UNWEIGHTED gpa?? uve never gotten anything below an A in any class? uh then ur weighted gpa must be great but the colleges are probably not going to take that into account because theyll suspect grade inflation. u should be able to get higher than a 690 and 680 sat2 and 1370sat if u have all As. but neways...cornell is a slight reach, so is emory and rice, berkeley is a reach, stanford is a supersuper reach, claremont seems like a match</p>
<p>yeah.. i worked my butt off in those classes. I got 5s on the ap exams.. but for some reason i just don't do well on the sats. Do you think that my scores will really hurt my chances?</p>
<p>Might want to apply to some good northeastern liberal arts schools like Holy Cross, Colby, Bucknell. Smaller schools sometimes offer better financial aid for good students.</p>
