<p>I have a 4.6/5.0 GPA, all honors classes my fresh/soph years and all APs my junior year and this year. I have a 32/36 on my ACT, I'm taking my SAT in November. I don't have too many extracurricular: a lot of volunteering (tutoring kids, volunteering at a daycare, and at two different libraries including the NYPL) along with creative writing workshops I take, the school newspaper and literary magazine, and I started my own independent magazine when I was 16. I also completed three years worth of high school in 14 months, as in I did my freshman, sophomore, and junior years in 14 months. Also, the volunteering I only started about 4 months ago.
What do you think my chances are at an Ivy? My top choices are Princeton, Yale, and Brown.</p>
<p>We would need to know class rank which puts your GPA in context. If you go to an average HS, most ivies would want you to be at the very top of your class. While 32 puts you in the running, a higher score would also help.</p>
<p>Princeton and Yale look for national level accomplishments outside of the classroom and Brown would expect pretty significant ECs.</p>
<p>^^I don’t know if doing three years of high school in 14 months will necessarily be seen as a good thing. It might make the schools wonder just how rigorous the program really was. Are you at a public or private hs or are you home schooled?</p>
<p>My school doesn’t rank. I go to a private, online college prep school so my education is really independent.
My SAT subject tests were History (720), Literature (780), and Math 1 (700).
