<p>I'm a high school rising junior, but I'm already very concerned about college. I know some places I want to go, so please tell me if I'm looking way above my target range! Thanks so much!
I want to go to UC Berkely, UVA, Georgetown, or Brown (I know Brown's a huge stretch, but hey!)

I expect to get straight A's next year (I know it will be hard, but I'm ready!). I'm taking AP English, AP Envi Sci, AP US History, Honors Chem, Honors PreCalc, Latin III. I also expect to get 5's on my APs. I got a 5 in AP World.
ECs: Sophomore/ Junior: VP of Debate Team
Soph: Features Editor of school newspaper, will be Ed. in Chief Junior/ Senior year
I also was part of a team that got first prize in the nation for EuroChallenge economics competition.
I was published on TeenInk.com and have won two other creative writing contests.
I write a column for the town newspaper.
I go on a service trip to repair homes in Appalachia every summer--should give me 504 volunteer hours by the time I apply to college!
Senior year I'm taking: AP Psych, AP Calc, AP English, AP Gov/Pol, Honors Physics, Latin 4.
I have a 740 in my WH SATII and will probably get high scores in US History and English. My SAT score is currently a 2090, w. a 770 in writing, 750 verbal, and 570 math. I should be able to bring the math up to at least a 670.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! If you think of other schools I could get into, feel free to share!
PS. In CT, white, fairly wealthy, so no shot of diversity getting me in. I am a good writer, though, so I have high hopes for my essays!</p>
