<p>“National Achievement Semifinalist” +Low income first generation</p>

<p>With your GPA and Rank and SAT, you will get into many top colleges.</p>

<p>I think that you are competitive at all of those, though as the people before me have noted, there is no certainty for anyone applying for those schools.</p>

<p>Feel free to chance me back:<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1569000-chance-me-williams-calberkley-cornell-wesleyan.html?highlight=chance+me+at+williams[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1569000-chance-me-williams-calberkley-cornell-wesleyan.html?highlight=chance+me+at+williams&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>you are applying to all pretty selective schools minus IU but your e.c.s are good so i definitely think you will get into one or two of the really selective ones. best of luck.</p>

<p>…bump…</p>

12

<p>I think you are good enough for all of those schools, however so is everybody else applying. You should be able to get into at least a few of those of not WL. Good luck!</p>

13

<p>Well for everyone HYPSC are reaches. I think your best shot at an Ivy would probably be Dartmouth; I’d say a low-reach for that one. Chicago should be a low-reach as well. Matches for the other two. </p>

<p>Chance me back? Thanks in advance. <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1572861-chance-me-i-will-chance-back.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1572861-chance-me-i-will-chance-back.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>you seem like a very well rounded applicant (a rarity these days!) so congratulations on that and all of your other amazing accomplishments. be very proud of yourself no matter what happens. In my opinion you have very good chances at all of these schools. as long as you put your mind to it I am sure you will be pleased with the results!

<p>Ivies are always tough, but you’re as competitive as any of them. Low reach for all Columbia and Dartmouth, high reach for HY. High match for UChicago. You’re in everywhere else. </p>

<p>Chance back please! <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1572592-columbia-ed-top-state-schools-ea-chance-international.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1572592-columbia-ed-top-state-schools-ea-chance-international.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

17

<p>Your SATs are quite low, but this is somewhat protected by your comprehensive ECs. I’m not too sure what the US curriculum looks like but you seem to be taking a lot of subjects (meaning you have a rigorous academic course). I think you will likely get into all of those schools.</p>

<p>What do you mean when you say “first generation ( kind of)”.
While your testing scores are around the mid/low avg of the more selective schools, your activities are pretty strong thus placing you at like a mid-reach at all the ivies, high for harvard/yale. I’d probably say reach for UChicago too (considering how selective its gotten as of late)
you’re in everywhere else for sure though</p>

<p>Your chances are a lot better than kids with 36 and 2400.
I hope you post the results.
I say you have very good chances at every school on your list.</p>
