<p>so i'm a junior this year, and i'm starting to worry about what colleges to apply to my senior year. i want to apply ED/EA to some ivy league colleges, but i really don't know where i stand in terms of these colleges, and i don't want to waste my ED/ EA on a college that i have absolutely no chance of getting into..</p>
<p>my top three choices for college would be :
Brown
Stanford
WUSTL</p>
<p>my SAT is a 2100 (i'm taking it again in october), i'll be taking SAT IIs in May or June, i've taken around 12 AP courses at my high school, I'll be taking 6 AP tests this May (I slacked off my other years and cancelled my scores because i didn't do well...), my W GPA is 5.0 (i don't know what it is UW because our school GPA system is weird.. it's on a 6.0 scale..), i swim/crew (i've gone to summer camps even though my school/town doesn't support them), i'm in the student body club, environment club, medicine club, rotary club, nhs, academic decathlon, and i volunteered at the library this past summer. i've gone to state for this academic league thing for 9th and this year, and i've gone to state for band events too. that's about it, nothing too special really. i'm just hoping my essays will help A LOT, but i don't know..</p>
<p>oh, and i'm 15. so would taking a post- grad year at some elite boarding school that has swim and crew be better than just going to my state university if i don't get into any college i like? not that my state university is bad, but it's just that everyone at my school gets accepted there, and i've worked way too much harder than they have..</p>
<p>hopefully i can get superb teacher recs, but i'm not sure.. and i can write essays really well.</p>
<p>so what would be my chances in terms of my top choices and other top universities?</p>
<p>thanks. : )</p>
