<p>Did you take SAT II’s?</p>
<p>IMO, the only difficult challenge for you on your list is Georgetown. Your GPA may be a bit on the low side for Georgetown, but your test scores are impressive and EC’s solid and you are a legacy, so I would consider you a match (>55%). </p>
<p>I think you should consider adding a one or two bigger reaches to your list; perhaps Northwestern, Duke, U Chicago, Dartmouth, Brown (or even reach even higher to upper ivies)? These are pretty tough schools, but you shouldn’t be afraid to reach.</p>
<p>No sat 2s and thanks alot for the input. I never really thought about applying to those schools but ill look into it</p>

<p>I agree with the poster above, your stats are pretty good, especially for the schools that you are looking at. Georgetown might be the only school that you might have a little lower of a chance to get accepted to. You could probably start to look at some of more selective schools like the above poster suggested. Good luck!</p>
<p>Thanks ill definitely look into more sxhools. I kind of feel bad for now though…I’m actually a sophomore an those are just my projected stats. Very likely, but they haven’t happened yet. I thought it would sound dumb I I admitted that</p>

<p>^Never sounds dumb to admit the truth. Anyway, it worked I guess. I am not sure how useful the answers are, but I would not have chanced you if I knew you were a sophomore and these were projected stats.</p>
<p>Yeah sorry about that I feel like an jerk after you guys helped me out. My grades have been really poor lately and I was wondering if I would be able to get into the schools I wanted with a bad sophomore year. There’s not really many others places to get that kind of info</p>
<p>Very impressive stats, extremely well-rounded, and your SAT I is ridiculous!! It’s a shame your grades don’t match up - that would be your only weakness here, though if you’re on the upswing and explain briefly (and eloquently) why you had that pit-fall sophomore year, you should be fine. Make sure your essays are stellar and personal and passionate 
And I agree with hinsdale1, try for some reaches at possibly Duke, Princeton, Northwestern - you never know!</p>
<p>You have a really good chance at all of them.</p>
<p>UMiami- Match
Georgetown-Reach
UCSB-Match
USC- Low Reach
University of Maryland- Low Reach</p>
