<p>My top 5 schools are Bowdoin, Middlebury, Vassar, Hamilton, and Colgate
GPA: 3.60 unweighted in honors-accelerated classes, no class rank (I really screwed up freshman and sophomore year, but am getting straight A's this semester)
ACT: 35
Subject tests: 770 US History, 750 Math 2, 740 Spanish
Other tests: 99th percentile, outside experience, on the National Spanish Exam, 4 on AP US History, which I took a class for, 5 on AP French Language and Culture (I'm from France and speak it fluently), 5 on AP European History, which I taught myself without taking any sort of class
Extracurriculars: Loads of music (I play flute, have 4 leadership roles, arrange music, do both jazz and classical, have an arts supplement, and playing at community events accounts for most of my community service), Captain of the Ultimate Frisbee team, Head Section editor for the school newspaper, Model UN, founding member of a community service club
Essays and rec: Guidance counselor and English teachers said my essay's one of the best they've ever read, my recommendations are from an English teacher and Spanish teacher from last year, who both adored me
The main sticking point is the GPA, which is quite a bit below accepted averages, but how would you guys rate my chances for my top schools?
I've already been rejected ED from Dartmouth
Thanks for helping to alleviate, or contribute to, the stress</p>
<p>Colgate: high match
Hamilton: high match
Vassar: high match
Bowdoin: low reach
Middlebury: low reach</p>
