<p>Hi! So, I was wondering if I have a chance at any of these schools I'm thinking of applying to next year! =) So, here are my stats:</p>

<p>GPA: weighted:>4.0; unweighted:4.0 </p>

<p>the only Bs on my transcript are from alg.1 1st and 2nd sem. (both 87) & the reason I don't have a 5.0 is that not all my classes (theatre, state required, sports, etc.) are graded on a 5 pt. scale </p>

<p>SAT: 2160 (i'm taking it again)</p>

<p>plan to take: ACT & SATII: in spanish (W/listening), history (US), biology M</p>

<p>Class Rank: in the top 20 out of a class of 1000, school of 3000-4000</p>

<p>Taking 2 IB SLs this year (Art History and Spanish)
Taking 1 IB SL next year (Math SL)
Taking 3 IB HLs next year (English, Biology & History of the Americas)</p>

<p>Overall, I've had 4yrs of IB Spanish (thinking of going into PIB Ital. 2 Sr. yr.& not Spanish 5 bcs I'm fluent in Spanish)
I will have 5yrs of IB math
4yrs of IB science (IPC [lab], 1yr of chem [lab], 3yrs of bio[2yrs of lab])
4 IB English

<p>So, if you've gotten this far thanks so much for reading all that! =D</p>

<p>Here are all my schools:

Washington & Lee University
College of William & Mary
UVA
University of Richmond
UNC-Chapel Hill
Duke
Rice
Harvard
Yale</p>

<p>W&L, W&M, UVA, Richmond, and UNC will all let you in. Georgetown and Duke are low reaches, as is Rice (only because you’re from Texas). Harvard and Yale are out of your league unless you get your SATs above 2250 and get at least 770+ on your subject tests, and even then they’re still reaches (as they are for everyone).</p>

<p>How do you have a 4.0 Unweighted with 2 Bs?</p>

4

<p>No clue really. I have really no idea how my school does their GPAs, I just post what they tell me. The bs were from 8th grade high school credit courses, so they may carry less weight. I’m not exactly sure. My school district is a little wonky. =P</p>

<p>Look, I’m sorry that there’s so much information to go through, and as much as I value the one opinion I got (btw, thanks so much for that =D), I would love to hear what everyone else thinks! I’ll chance yours!</p>
