<p>Well it looks like you have excellent ECs and your GPA is not bad, but not excellent, I would also have to say it all comes down to your sat score</p>

<p>If you get 1000-1100: Almost any state college.
1200-1300: Any state college, and some prestigous.
1400-1600: Any state, prestigous, I would also try for the Ivies (you just in case). They dont always look at gpa (good luck).</p>

<p>Your weighted GPA is kind of low. What is your unweighted? Everything else looks decent, but grades are always the first and formost thing looked at.</p>

<p>yah, it’s my weighted GPA…
my grades went downward when i took the heaviest course-load (AP, Honors, classes with upperclassmen, etc.).</p>
