<p>Sort of Hook: Internship at MIT last year, will be getting a rec from the professor I worked for. Maybe only a hook at MIT and probably not even that much of a hook?</p>

Middlebury
UCBerkeley (out of state)
UChicago
URochester
UVa (out of state)</p>
<p>Your test scores are pro. Your senior year classes are pro. Your ECs…not so pro(tho Ice Hockey is a pretty cool EC to have). Ok shot at MIT, but make sure you apply to other schools like Berkeley for example.</p>
<p>Your scores are all pretty good. Your ECs are lacking a bit, but your hook suffices. I know a few people that got into MIT without a personal hook like that, so it should benefit you. You have plenty of fall-backs in there, so go ahead and reach. If you don’t make it, you still have some good colleges; in which you are almost guaranteed to get into with those scores…it mostly comes down to your essay and how compatible you and the college are.</p>
<p>I believe you need to work hard on your ECs. Display your passion for theater or ice hockey, and you’ll do fine. Colleges like people who are passionate about a few things, rather than dilettantes who dabble in endless activities in a bid to expand their ‘laundry-list’.</p>
<p>Your SAT score is incredible. MIT, HARVARD are a crapshoot for anyone. I see you making into most of your listed colleges. LOR from MIT professor works in your favour too.
Best of luck. Work on your ECs. Apply to Caltech too, they don’t care too much about ECs, not matter what they say. I know a few people who’ve got admitted solely on the basis of their scores, notwithstanding terrible extra-curricular activities.</p>
<p>Harvard, MIT, and Stanford are somewhat reaches due to iffy ECs (but as ptlazarus says, theyre a crapshoot for anyone), but your SATs and schedule strength are exceptional. This makes you a pretty strong candidate for any of the other schools on your list.</p>
<p>Berkeley, UChicago, and Penn would like you. You’ve got the grades and test scores, dig deeper into the EC’s and find your impact on the community.</p>
<p>I would chance you but I’m afraid I’m a bit too naive to know which colleges you would get into Your test scores are amazing though!!! Reading through your qualifications I’d say you’re good to go for all the colleges on your list except those (High reach for anyone) colleges like MIT, Stanford, etc. (:</p>
