Really paranoid, HELP!

Chance Me / Match Me!

Hi! I’m currently a sophomore right now and my dream school is Colgate University. However, I’m getting really paranoid.

In my freshman year, I was in one regular class (common core algebra) the rest in honors, and for sophomore year im in 2 regular classes (common core geometry and earth science). They dropped me to a regular earth science class because they don’t have an honors class. Finally for junior year, I’ll be in just one regular class for chemistry. For senior year, I’ll have no regular classes (class rigor will be the toughest).

So by the end of high school I will have taken 4 regular classes, 9 honor classes, and 7 AP classes. I’m taking college accounting and college marketing junior year as my electives but they are SCALE classes.

My GPA is a 93-94 (my school doesn’t convert it to the 4.0 scale not class rank) and let’s say I get a 31 on the ACT.

EC:
Secretary of Red Cross (10th grade)
Vice President of Red Cross (11th grade)
President of Red Cross (12th grade)
Key Club
DECA (secretary in 11th grade and qualified to states)
National Science Honor Society
National English Honor Society (secretary 12th grade)
National Math Honor Society
National Global Honor Society
National Business Honor Society

Will those 4 regular classes destroy my chances of getting accepted?
Do I even have a shot at Colgate University?
Help!

My GPA of 93-94 is unweighted by the way. I’m asian and I will be applying early to Colgate!

As long as you get basically As (especially in those regular classes as well as APs) I can’t see why taking a few regular classes would hurt you-- especially since your increasing your schedule difficultly year by year. It’s fine to take a few regular classes if it’s in a subject that your schools doesn’t have a honor/AP course in. If your school does have an honors course in that subject your taking next year you should generally take it unless you think you would do bad in it or your work load would be overwhelming. Overall though if you get As and are challenging yourself at the end of the day colleges can’t really complain.

If you get a 31, it’s about a 50-50 thing.
