<p>I'm seriously considering my chances at the schools I'm applying to: Cornell, Dartmouth, Columbia, and Florida State University (in state). Should I keep my hopes up? </p>
<p>Total of 11 AP's for high school. (3's, 4's, and 5's)
- All A's and 2 B's total. (one was a high school course offered in eighth grade and one 10th grade)
- I've maintained a rigorous academic schedule since sophomore year, but freshman year contained regular classes.
- 4.0 GPA unweighted, 4.7 weighted, top 3% of my class, will graduate summa cum laude
- ACT (31), SAT (1800), will take SAT Subject tests for American history and Chemistry (650+ at least)
- AP Scholar
- Laureate graduation award, and laureate presentation with a 5,000 page paper concerning LGBT marriage with a powerpoint (This is prestigious in my area).
- Academic Achievement awards (3 years so far), Drama department award, and various drama awards.
- President of the Drama Club, president of the Gay/Straight Alliance, school sponsored president of the International Thespian Society, historian of the Glee Club, Academic Team competitor, Key Club, and National Honor Society.
- I've volunteered over 300 hours with a kid's drama camp, at the hospital, library, and other areas as well.
- I'm a male 1st generation American with family from Cuba, and the 1st to go away to college. </p>
<p>Overall, do my chances look good at getting into any of the schools I listed, and could you help me rank them by chance? :) Do the regular classes my freshman year hurt me? Thank you.</p>
