<p>What do you think my chances are?</p>

<p>You've set yourself up nicely for college admission next year by maintaining a good class rank and taking the SAT/ACT already. I wish I would've taken them as a junior, then I probably would have done a little better. But anyway, you've still got a year to raise your test scores even more, so that should work well for you.</p>

<p>Duke ED: with legacy I can't see you not getting in.
Duke RD: Match (Again I'd be surprised if you don't get in w/legacy)
Dartmouth: I don't know a whole lot about ivies, but I'd say reach/low reach?
UCLA: match (I don't know how they look at out of state)
WashU: Reach (really tough to get in here RD. They fill a lot of enrollment ED and deny many good students who don't really seem interested in their program. Then they have thousands of applicants competing for roughly ~ 800-1000 spots. Acceptance rate was 17% last year and it's even lower for RD)
Tufts: High Match
UPenn: Low Reach?
Columbia: Reach?</p>

<p>Overall, good chance at all of them.</p>

<p>Chance me back?</p>

<p>You’ve set yourself up very well, and an improvement in your test scores will only help you more. If you raise your scores and take Subject Tests while the content is still fresh in your mind, you will have a great chance at all of those schools</p>

<p>Wow, we are extremely similar. I’m a double leg at Duke with similar scores, although you’ve got me by a bit on SATs. I’d like to say you’re extremely competitive at all these schools (although it’s perhaps wishful thinking on my part). Good luck.</p>

<p>Edit: We’re also looking at mostly the same exact schools. What are you trying to play as your “passion” card? It seems like you might have a devotion for medicine or science, but it’s hard to know with such little information.</p>

<p>Yeah my passions are really science and community service. So I guess that would make my passion medicine because that’s helping people with science.</p>
