<p>Alright so im a junior right now in high school, and I'm a fairly bright kid. I had a terrible sophomore year though cuz I was sorta lost for a little while. My gpa is a 3.6 unweighted and a 3.9 weighted. I've taken ap euro and am currently taking ap us and ap english, and only honors classes. I took the sats in october and got a 2035. I'll probably take them again. I have done 2 years of xc skiing and 2 yeats so far of tennis for sports. I've volunteered at a hospital and will be an emt this coming summer. I'm a member of key club, president of med club and a member of future business leaders off america clubs at my school. </p>

<p>My dream colleges are</p>

<p>Johns hopkins
Boston college
Carnegie-mellon
Northeastern
Nyu
<em>University of miami</em></p>

<p>Do you guys think I have a shot at any of these and can you tell me some more realistic colleges I have a de decent chance to get into?</p>

<p>I also plan on majoring in law or business as well as applying for an rotc scholarship in my second year.
Thanks for the help</p>

<p>Bumpity bump</p>

11

<p>one more bump</p>

12

<p>Your GPA is not that low, and your SAT is not that high. (Assuming it’s either 2030 or 2040.)</p>

<p>I’d say UMiami, Northeastern, NYU, and maybe BC are your best bets. UMiami and NYU in particular.</p>

<p>ok thanks. Will it make any difference that I’m a Sikh from India and we are a pretty small minority in this country?</p>

14

<p>bumping again</p>

15

<p>agree with Kat1234.</p>

<p>Being Sikh won’t make any difference. URM in this country is African American (doubly so for male), Native American, and to a lesser degree, Hispanic. Very low income (under $30k family of 4) regardless of ethnicity/race can also be a quasi URM class.</p>

16

<p>Really? Just wondering then why so many people in other posts ask for the persons race?</p>

<p>Haha cmon guys I really need some help here</p>
