Chances?

<p>In-state, double-legacy (both my parents went there and so did my uncle, if that counts for anything extra).</p>

<p>GPA: 3.57 uw total, 3.9 weighted total (assuming 0.5 extra for Honors and AP courses). In academic courses only: 3.6 uw and 4.02 weighted. </p>

<p>SAT: 600m, 650cr, 700w</p>

<p>Rank: Top 25%</p>

<p>Schedule: All honors except math, Freshman-Junior year. I also took Statistics at the local CC (received an A) and am taking Calculus there. I have already taken two APs, Euro and USH. I've taken an entire academic schedule throughout my four years (besides required electives), and have gotten through French IV (with As for each year if French..my school does not offer AP).
Senior Year Schedule (by FAR the hardest schedule in the entire grade):
AP Art History, AP American Government, AP Human Geography, AP Physics B, AP English Lit, AP Biology (and Calculus 1 at a CC).</p>

<p>Also note that my GPA would be significantly higher if Freshman year wasn't counted. I have gotten all As in everything besides science (Bs) for Sophomore and Junior year.</p>

<p>As far as ECs go, most of them relate to filmmaking. I'm working on a documentary which will serve, more or less, as an advertisement for my high school. I directed our class video last year and am slated to direct it again this year. I worked on a National History Day documentary which made it to the State finals. Additionally, I attended a film camp for three years and was paid to work at another. I have also spent a significant amount of time starting my own production company with my friends. Other then that, I have some work experience. I did a part time job last summer and a full time one this summer. I also plan to work about 20 hrs. per week during the school year.</p>

<p>How do I look? Reach, match, safety? Do I have any chance at any $? Is there anything I need to do to improve my app? Thanks for any input.</p>

<p>It looks good to me. They will like the fact you are extremely interested and have stuck with something for a long time..play that up in your application. They consider that "talent" so use it. Might want to use this topic somehow in your essay. They do take legacy into account, but it's not a big factor. I think you're in.</p>
