Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Curious on what you guys think my chances are to Dartmouth, UC Berkeley, U Penn, Columbia, and the HYPSM schools. I plan on doing early decision/action to one of these schools (except Berkeley of course) so that does increase admission chances. </p>

<p>If you are aware of any students who have gotten into such schools and remember what their credentials were, it would be very beneficial if you could draw on that knowledge to comment on this thread. If not, all other answers are much appreciated as well. Thank you!</p>

<p>GPA: 3.97 unweighted
ACT: 32 (First time taking it, will go up to at least a 34)
SAT Subject Tests: Math lvl 2-800 Literature-760
AP's- Physics C Mechanics (5), Language and Composition (5), Calculus AB (5), Chemistry (4) -But do these AP scores even matter in college admissions?</p>

<p>Senior Year: AP Calc BC, AP lit, AP Environmental Science, AP Statistics, IB Business, IB World History. </p>

<p>*4 years of Chinese at my high school. </p>

<p>EC's: Varsity Swim for 4 years, Activities Director of SADD, DECA state finalist, Student Council Class Rep for 3 years, Lifeguard/swim Instructor, Manager of girls swim and dive. </p>

<p>I feel like overall my resume isn't too competitive.. What do you think?</p>

<p>Top schools like Harvard will look at AP scores just like additional SAT2 subject test scores. Your ACT is near the low end of the mid 50 for top schools. If you can boost it to 34+ as your said, you would have a much better chance.</p>

<p>Your ec’s are a bit dull, especially to the adcoms. The schools are all reaches, save for maybe UCB…</p>

<p>Thanks yellow I didn’t even know that was on this site. I forgot to mention one thing though. Will a suspension in sophomore year affect my chances of admission greatly? It was related to a marijuana incident, but since then I’ve quit and tried to get myself on track.</p>
