Middling SAT I and II scores, High GPA and rank??????

<p>I'm not exactly sure where I stand in terms of colleges. My top choice would be Yale, but if it's too much of a reach, then it's Rice University.</p>

<p>What are my chances of getting into those colleges if I had a 2100 SAT I, 770 Math II, 690 U.S. History, 680 Biology. My GPA is a 5.2/4.0 W; my UW is unknown. My rank is 3/250, and I come from an extremely rural town (we have cows and farmland).</p>

<p>I plan on double majoring in Econ/Bio (tentative though) with a minor in a Humanities subject</p>

<p>My ECs are pretty extensive. I don't have many leadership positions in clubs at my school, but I am dedicated to a lot of my extracurricular activites (5+ years involvement on at least 5 of my ECs).</p>

<p>Counselor recs should be very, very good. I've known them since I was a like 5. Teacher recs should also be stellar. My essays are in the progress, but, hopefully, they should be good because I'm not a sucky writer.</p>

<p>So overall I'd peg me as just AVERAGE. And I would apply to Yale no matter what because it's my first choice, but Rice has ED while Yale does not, so Rice would be the more practical solution I guess...</p>

<p>I know about the "What if...." but I just want to know how my stats fare in the Yale and Rice admissions process.</p>

<p>Thanks to everyone!!:D</p>

<p>Oh, and I'm Asian.</p>

<p>Also, are there any other schools on the East Coast that would be matches/low reaches?</p>

<p>It is, I confess, a little difficult to gauge your chances at Yale, though your semi-random geographic location may help you. If Yale’s your dream, apply! You really never know and your stats ARE (or will be?) good. </p>
