How are my chances at getting into these schools?

<p>Schools I'm applying for:</p>

<p>Rice, USC, Vanderbilt, UCLA, U Chicago, Northwestern, WashU, Emory, and a backup</p>

<p>ACT: 34
Unweighted GPA: 3.7
Top 10% of class
Taken mostly AP/Honor classes (1/2 - 3/4 of my schedule is usually AP/Honors)</p>

<p>A lot of extracurriculars(this is only some):
Varsity Football (11 & hopefully 12 too)
JV Soccer (9 and 10)
Club Soccer in summer (9-11)
Leader of praise team at my church (guitar/vocals), and senior leader at the Youth Group
National Honor Society (volunteering) 3 years
Hospital Volunteering for 2 years</p>

<p>I'm just worried about my GPA right now. I've also heard that my counselor at my high school is pretty bad and isn't very good at recommendations. </p>

<p>Basically, just wondering what everyone thinks my chances are at these schools. (Should I even bother applying?) And what recommendations you guys have for me to improve my chances.</p>

<p>Thanks for your time :)</p>

<p>Say, are you my doppleganger? You have the same GPA and are applying to the exact same schools as me. :p</p>

<p>LOL really? Ahahaha. Wait, that’s your exact list? o.o</p>
