<p>Hi, I'm a soon-to-be senior who hopes to attend Harvard, Columbia, Princeton or Yale university: here are my stats:
GPA: 91.52/100 (Idk on the 4.0 scale); can improve
SAT: 2040, but I hope to get it up to a 2250+
SAT IIs: Will take Chem, French, and Math 2c
Previous APs: European History (4) and Spanish Language (5)
Senior Course Workload: AP Calc AB, AP English Lit, AP French, AP Chem, AP Physics B, and AP US (6 APs, yea I'm crazy)
E/Cs: Over 500 hours of volunteering at a local nursing home, plus 200 credits of helping in the foreign language office, unfrotunately could not join any teams or clubs due to circumstances but I also play the violin and piano (lessons + self-taught), have volunteered for two weeks in Latin America in soup kitchens and churches, and have taken Japanese and Latin classes outside of school, Habitat for Humanity (helped give lunches to workers)
Job: Hope to get a job, have been looking for one
Awards or Honors: School doesn't really give them, and haven't got national or regional in anything
Income Bracket: Low (<$30,000)
Race: Latino/Hispanic (South American)
High School: The Bronx High School of Science (super selective magnet school in NYC with an acceptance rate lower than most Ivies =])</p>

<p>So can you guys comment on my chances to getting into these four selective Ivies, also I'm very curious if its in my advtange to do early action/ descision to Columbia or Yale? I know the acceptance rate is much higher, but then again kids applying early are like super national musicians who played in carnagie hall or kids who worked towards researching cure for cancer lol. Please give me your prior experience in if I can make them, what I can do to improve, and yea like, if early is good/wise</p>

<p>essay...how I should express myself and really extend my topic and make an impact to the admissions office...</p>

<p>Thank you all so very very much I'm much obliged. I really appreciate you guys taking the time out to help a nervous senior =[</p>

<p>none at all to be honest. your gpa is one the low side, and your sat score is pathetic. you have basically no extracurriculars, and getting a job this late just shows that youre doing it only for college. i wouldnt apply to any of those. aim for schools ranked in the 30s. </p>

<p>BTW, no college is impressed by the fact that you go to bronx science. they all know that everyone only goes there because they couldnt get into hunter and stuyvesant. i wouldnt mention how selective you think bronx sci is to colleges or theyll just get ****ed off</p>

<p>hey dont listen to this c ocksucker. u definitely have a shot like everyone else.Your GPA is fine and u r a URM. I’d say u do have a decent shot. </p>

<p>the f uck is wrong with u hagger?</p>

<p>Honestly, you don’t have a great shot currently.</p>

<p>But of course, if you improve your SAT as much as you’re intending to, and you improve your GPA over the course of your first semester, you’ll have a better chance.</p>

<p>you have a decent shot ATM. you’re ec’s are good and your gpa is decent. if you coudl get your sat past 2100 you should have a good shot, as you are a URM</p>
