How are my chances of getting accepted into a top Ivy League school or Stanford?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hey guys, I am a Freshman right now and I was wondering what my chances are of making it into Columbia, Harvard, Princeton, Yale, or Stanford. </p>

<p>Academically, I have a 4.0 GPA unweighted, 4.25 weighted. I plan to keep AT LEAST a 4.0 GPA unweighted for the rest of high school. My school does not rank, but I'm sure that I'm in the top 5% of my class. I maybe rank around 2nd, 3rd or 4th in a class of a 100 or so students. I am already studying for the SAT and the PSAT so that I can get at least a 2300 and also become a National Merit Scholar Finalist. This year, I already took the AP GOV Exam and think I made a 4 or a 5 possibly. My Sophomore year, I am taking 5 Pre-AP classes and one AP class. My Junior year, I plan on taking about 5 AP classes and 5 more my Senior year.
With ECs, I will tutor little kids at another school starting next year. I have come up with a unique idea to help improve education and reduce poverty in my state. I am still discussing this with my school principal,and we will implement it soon. I play soccer at have since I was 5(4 years club, 3 years school). I am a secretary for a club, Amnesty International and officer for Model UN. I plan on becoming president of Model UN in the future. I am thinking about doing an apprenticeship at a research lab in a university.I also plan on becoming a co-coach for a Church League Soccer team. I also plan on reading in my library to little children who are academically lagging. In addition, I have a plan to create 3 apps. 2 of them are related to charity and global awareness spreading, and the other is a gaming app.
Something extra about me is that I fluently speak 3 languages (English, Polish, and a language from India) and will also take Spanish 5 once I'm a senior. I also know a few people that would write me some good recommendation letters. I am also part Indian and part Polish, which I thought would be beneficial to the college application, though I'm not sure if it is. So if I do all this, what do you think my chances are of making it into those elite universities. Sorry for the long post!</p>

<p>Oh and by apps I mean like Apple Store apps</p>

<p>Asking for chances as a freshman is much too early. At this point, you are predicting future grades, which is seldom accurate. Guesses for test scores and the like is also seldom correct. </p>

<p>I’d advise that you keep working hard in classes and during tests. After you are in your second semester of junior year, then it is an appropriate time to start asking to be chanced.</p>

<p>Ok thanks.</p>

<p>It’s too hard to tell right now, but you’re definitely on the right track. Remember that, with Ivy Leagues and Stanford, what you do outside of the classroom (internships, sports, volunteering, etc) is just as important as your academics</p>

<p>Very soon, we will start seeing kindergartener asking for chances.</p>

<p>You predict your score for the sat is too high, many pretentious little freshman/sophomores think they can score 2300/35’s and they end up scoring low 2000’s/30’s.</p>

<p>Just wait till you have done more before you try to chance yourself.</p>

<p>Waaaay too early to chance. Get that weighted GPA up, keep that 4.0 UW, stick with what you plan to do and find something you’re passionate about that colleges will like a lot.</p>

<p>Really billcsho, no need for the condescending attitude. He’s going in to being a sophomore he wants a little guidance everyone does no one needs to see your negative outlook as for Achilles 09 I think you’re doing the right things, but if you’re going to do all these things you need to have flawless execution especially if you wanted to use your app as a supplemental in your application.</p>
