<p>This year I'm taking Calculus 3 through University of Illinois, as well as all other AP Classes. </p>
<p>I have pretty average EC's. Only remarkable thing I've done is volunteer is a third world country's hospital.</p>
<p>My essay's are very personal to where I come from and how I was raised. I can attach if asked for it. Those who have read mine really liked them</p>
<p>I'm a foreign born, white female. (I was born and raised in Albania)</p>
<p>Could you elaborate on what “pretty average EC’s” means? EC’s/awards are a huge deal in top colleges, and average just won’t cut it, even if you have a good GPA and test scores. Anyways, if the biggest thing you’ve done is volunteer, then I think your chances a pretty low. </p>
<p>Duke - Low Reach
Columbia - Reach
Washu - High Match/Low Reach
JHU - High Match/Low Reach
UC Berkeley - Low Reach
Stanford - Reach
Northwestern - Low Reach
NYU - Match</p>
<p>Yes - WashU/JHU (if not bio major)/UCB/Northwestern/NYU
Good chances at - Duke/JHU (if bio major)
Columbia and Stanford are both really low chances, with a slightly higher chance of Columbia than Stanford.</p>
<p>As far as my EC’s:
Ran Track and Field Freshman and Sophmore year
Member of BPA (made state)
Member of TARC
Volunteer
Tutor (inside and outside school)</p>
<p>you mentioned you are foreign born; are you an international applicant? If so, are you applying for financial aid? Because either of those would affect your chances. If your a domestic application, your chances are still pretty weak at all those schools excluding UCB and NYU. Your extracurriculars are pretty weak, not average.</p>
<p>Yea I agree with pickle chicken, without great EC’s I think most of these schools are reaches
Duke - Low Reach
Columbia - Reach
Washu - Low Reach
JHU - Low Reach
UC Berkeley - Reach
Stanford - Reach
Northwestern - Low Reach
NYU - High Match</p>
