Chances of getting into Stanford?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I am currently a junior and have gotten mixed A's and B's in high school so far and took two AP's last year, along with two honors. I am taking four AP's this year and two honors. I am expecting to get all mid A's (93-97) this year. I haven't taken the SAT, but expect to get around the same as other admitted to Stanford. Next year, I will take 5 AP's.</p>

<p>Where I really shine is my extracurriculars. I started a company in 8th grade that has grown from a hobby to peaking in $4k in daily revenue and I just raised $150k from a company to launch a new product (I create iPhone apps). I also am the president of the Investment Club at my private school and manage a $10k+ stock portfolio. I am also going to become an Eagle Scout this Summer. Other things include graduating with 150+ of community service, being elected into my counties highly selective youth leadership program, lettering three out of four years in Track, and being part of the Interact Club (2 years) and FCA (3 years).</p>

<p>Based on this info, what do you think my chances are, assuming that I am correct about the grades that I get this year?</p>

<p>Also, please provide your source (i.e. you are a current student, alumni, know someone who got admitted, etc.)</p>

<p>ADDITIONAL INFO: I am a white male. My AP World score was 3, but the rest of mine are/will be mostly 5s with some 4s.</p>

<p>Your raising $150k is pretty interesting. I am sure that that will stick out in your app. Other than that, it would be pointless for anyone to bother “chancing” you because it is too early to determine anything.</p>

<p>Finish your Junior year.</p>

<p>I know that it is still early, but I would like to know how much of a chance I would have of getting in if I achieve my academic goals this year. Anyone else have any input? Assuming that I do, in fact, get what I hope to.</p>

<p>Your extracurriculars are solid, at least. But no SAT, no concrete GPA, etc… not enough for a chance that’ll be of any use to you.</p>

<p>If you keep those EC’s up you’ll have an easier time than most getting in. Stanford loves entrepreneurs.</p>

<p>Although, if you’re making 4K a day it sounds like you could be retiring pretty soon.</p>
