<p>Great scores and certainly a great GPA. However, your ECs don’t necessarily show the level of commitment that top colleges want to see since most have only been activities for a year or two. That being said, you’ve definitely got a shot!</p>

<p>Harvard: Mid-high reach
Yale: Mid-high reach
Princeton: Mid-high reach
UC Berkeley: High match
UCLA: High match
UCSD: Match</p>

<p>Most of the ivies are a high reach for you. The only senior from my sister’s high school to get into Harvard was the California State President for FBLA. In charge of some 100,000 people.</p>
