I’m currently a junior in highschool and am wanting to know if anyone can tell me what my chances are of getting into a school like harvard. I have roughly a 3.8 gpa (or a 7.12 on the 8.0 scale), I haven’t taken the SAT or ACT yet but I got a 217 on the psat so assuming I do about the same on the SAT it would be a 2170 sat. In terms of extracurricular activities I have gotten the president community service award each year, I took a community service trip to new orleans to help restore the wetlands, I rowed crew freshmen year and have played golf every year in highschool. I have also been a member of youth in government and world affairs. Also this year I’m the president of a club that I founded, student managed investment fund, where we invest actual money in the stock market, we are funded by my highschool. In terms of work experience the summer after my sophomore year I worked at a pet store for 30 hours a week for about 6 weeks, that same summer I participated in an online stock trading competition and returned profits over 12%(the money wasn’t real but it was a good simulator), and this coming summer I’m going to intern at a private equity firm. I’m most likely going to be a national merit scholar and I took 2 ap classes and 1 honor last year and 3 ap’s this year and plan on taking all ap next year. I havent taken any SAT II’s yet either but plan on it. Can anyone tell me what my chances might be getting into any of the ivies or other good schools like duke or vandy?
