<p>Okay, two quick things:</p>

<p>Stanford doesn’t count freshman year–so tell us how you did in 10th and 11th grade.
Also, schools don’t “superscore” the ACT (just the SAT)–so you have to use the 34, not the 35.</p>

<p>In my view, you are an easy accept at Cornell, an easy reject at Harvard, but your odds at Stanford look quite good if your science awards are as you describe. Tell us a bit about them and about your freshman year versus the other years so we can chance you better.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>Percentage wise, you probably have 10% chance to Harvard, 10-20% chance at Stanford, and 40-50% Cornell.</p>

5

<p>freshman year stats are basically the same as the other years,
science awards
about 4 first places in state and regional fairs
1 first place in international fair in houston TX
probably 10 2-3 place and other special awards</p>

<p>You have a decent shot at Cornell University, but Harvard (less likely) due to average test scores per other applicants. Stanford is going to be extremely- Do you have any national awards in the science field? If so, that will most definately increase your chances in all the above noted colleges. I strongly believe you have the academic background to be admitted into a top 25 college.</p>

<p>You’re looking quite good for Cornell to be honest. Stanford will be more of a stretch than Harvard based solely on the fact that Stanford is a smaller school. Good Luck! Please help me out…</p>

<p>Cornell is a match, especially if you see your international science award, your acts should get you in there.
For Harvard, your sats are quire low for Caucasian males, but your ACT is good, so
For Stanford I think you have more of a chance than harvard since they don’t focus on the scores as much, but you’ll really have to impress them with your essays if you want to get in as an unhooked applicant (like everyone else)</p>
