<p>Hi, I'm a senior right now in California and I'm getting ready to apply for college. I have some idea of what my chances are, but I'm not too sure. My top 3 are MIT, Stanford, and Berkeley. I want to major in engineering and business</p>
<p>So in terms of academics:
AP Scholar with distinction, 5s on all Ap exams taken: euro, psych, calc ab (no bc at my school), physics B, and bio (would the fact that the bio test changed this year and only 5% of people getting 5s make it look better?)
4.00 unweighted GPA, 4.83 junior year weighted, estimated 4.45-4.5 cumulative GPA
IB Diploma student
11 total school awards for being top of certain classes, notably all my science classes, AP calc, and IB english HL1
2230 SAT, 780 reading, 790 math, 660 writing (yeah. its bad. im retaking it)
34 ACT composite
800 on the physics subject test, 760 on the bio, 730 on the math 2
I also used to occasionally help teach my ap calc class with my teacher
