<p>cman74 not all kids have the same opportunities at different high-schools which is why it is important to take it into account in the admissions process. Consider this, when two applicants have the exact same stats, but one went to a very underprivileged high-school that offers few rigorous classes and has a low average ACT score of like 15 (like my school lol) while the other goes to a prestigious college prep school that has an average ACT score of around 30-32. Imo the person who attends the less privileged high-school gets the edge because he/she rises above the limitations of his/her school and succeeds just as well as someone who has much more opportunities.</p>
<p>But back to the OP, you have excellent chances at all schools with you class rank and scores, but your ECs aren’t extraordinarily impressive or anything.</p>
<p>And trust me, they won’t hold the fact that you haven’t taken any AP classes against you. They’ll see that you’ve taken the most rigorous coursework possible and that is all that you can do. Because colleges do take the limitations of your high-school into account, your lack of APs won’t hurt you and you will still be considered on the same level as freaks on this site with 12+ AP classes.</p>
<p>Btw I got into WashU in St. Louis without taking any APs until my senior year if that helps at all. My school doesn’t really offer AP classes before then.</p>
