<p>wow... your stats are pretty much as good as it gets, so i'd say you have a great chance for all, except princeton is hard to get into for anyone</p>

3

<p>You must be excellent in French to take AP as a sophomore ... are you a native speaker?</p>

<p>Chances look good at the Ivies. Your extra curriculars are a little weak but you have awesome stats. :)</p>

4

<p>Thank you guys
Yeah, my parents are both French, so I grew up speaking some French. I'm not fluent, but I'm getting there :)</p>

5

<p>I think you have a great chance everywhere...I know that Princeton weights Legacy quite a bit--it would've helped if you applied ED, but you still have a good chance!</p>

6

<p>i love tchaikovsky</p>

7

<p>haha yeah! who doesn't love tchaikovsky? My final project composition for my music theory and composition class was inspired by his fourth symphony :)</p>

8

<p>So can anyone else give me his or her opinions?</p>

9

<p>I think I'll just bump this so it resurfaces :)</p>

14

<p>impressive stats!</p>

15

<p>wow...amazing, althought, do your schools rank the other courses that aren't AP? like for example, honors (6.0), challenging (5.0), less challenging (4.0)? tu parles fran</p>

16

<p>Tiens! Sans d</p>

17

<p>Wow...post-aps hahha. You'll be really prepared for college</p>

18

<p>Your stats are terrific!</p>

<p>UCLA/B: Safe match
UCSD: Safety
UCD: I don't think you could possibly end up here, but there's no way that UCD will reject you.
Williams: ???
Cornell: Safe match
Columbia: Match
Dartmouth: Match
University of Pennsylvania: Match
Johns Hopkins: Safe match
Princeton: Slight reach</p>

19

<p>Thanks Flippy for that breakdown of each college :)</p>

20

<p>yeah flippy seems right on. People seem to have a hard time calling Ivies matches, but I think in your case it makes sense. I'd bump Columbia and maybe Dartmouth up to a slight reach though - the acceptance rates are just too low.</p>
