<p>Do I have any chance of getting into any Ivies?</p>

<p>Thank you so much if you actually took the time to read this all! Please share ANY thoughts you have!</p>

<p>You’re on track for basically any school with GPAs/ECs, but Ivies are probably out of reach if you get a 2050 SAT. Study and take your SAT/ACT, then try again, 'cause right now we don’t really have all the information. So far you’re looking competitive, but test scores can make or break people at top schools.</p>

<p>Thanks for your input! I’m hoping to do much better than 2050 on the SAT considering that was my sophomore year PSAT with NO preparation at all. I’m aiming for a 230 this year with taking a prep class, and then probably about 2300 on the SAT after tutoring. Those are my goals at least. I’d like to be at least a commended scholar in teh National Merit Scholarship</p>

<p>Will doing less common EC’s like crew and recieving my gold award in Girl Scouts (the highest award there is) help my chances?</p>

<p>What are my chances at schools like Boston College, William and Mary, Bucknell?</p>

<p>There are about a hundred schools that admit many students with grades and scores similar to yours. Consider the following list, for example:
[College</a> Rankings - Top 100 Ranked Universities for Highest SAT 75th Percentile Scores](<a href=“USA University College Directory - U.S. University Directory - State Universities and College Rankings”>Top 500 Ranked Colleges - Highest SAT 75th Percentile Scores)</p>

<p>At this point, nobody can tell you with much confidence whether your realistic “reach” schools fall closer to the middle of this list (Wellesley, Georgetown, UVa, Kenyon) or the top.</p>
