Is this looking good?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>So I'm currently a freshman at a very good public school in NY. I have a feeling it is kind of early to be making one of these posts but I'm clearly not a professional at the whole "college chance" process. I would like to attend Johns Hopkins or Colombia University. I want to be a surgeon (cardiothoracic like my mother).
Anyways, here are my stats:</p>

<p>SAT (I had taken a practice SAT a few weeks ago during April break, not a clue if it is good enough to attend JHU)- 2250
Regents Algebra (8th grade)- 97
Regents Earth Science- 100</p>

<p>Current Classes:
Honors Geometry, taking regents in June- A-
Biology (no honors offered)- A+
Honors Spanish 2- B+
Honors Science Research- A+
English 9- A+
AP Art- A+
Global History, taking regents in sophomore year b/c it's a two year course- B-, my teacher had actually said I'm her least favorite student :(</p>

<p>Sophomore classes
Honors Algebra 2 (Subject SAT at the end of the year)
Honors Chemistry (Subject SAT)
Honors Science Research (we have a mentor and conduct experiments with scientists and whatnot)
Spanish 3
Global History
Creative Writing
English 10</p>

<p>EC'S
Varsity Track
Regional Winner of Exploravision Competition (top 6 in the united states)
Model UN
Starting a SciOly team (demonstrates leadership I suppose)
Stock Market club
Layout editor of the school magazine
I write articles for the school newspaper
196 volunteer hours in the hospital
4 years of All- County band with perfect level 6 scores 4 out of the 5 years

<p>Additional Info:
Female
Indian
Parents did not live here, we moved when I was 4 from India to the states
I have taken the Regents Examinations</p>

<p>Our school doesn't offer NHS or debate club.</p>

<p>Thank you for reading all of this, if you have any tips on how to improve my grades, please share them :)</p>

<p>Bump?
I suppose I should mention it’s my friend’s stats, not mine. Sorry for not mentioning that…</p>

3

<p>youre in easily at JHU; stop worrying</p>

4

<p>columbia would be a reach. But it’s a reach for anyone</p>

Do you mean that this whole post is about your friend?
Well, regardless, considering this is a freshman’s stats, it’s an impressive start, especially the extracurricular and the practice SAT score. I’d say that you (or whoever) is definitely on the right track, though I’d agree with the above that the top top universities are still reaches. In other words, you won’t be a “shoo-in” but you have a good chance.</p>
