<p>yes. you will get in with those stats</p>

<p>^^^your stats are very solid but this is not a guarantee of admission! plenty of perfect 2400’s get rejected every year. My best advice is to stand out from the competition, differentiate yourself somehow!</p>

<p>You can’t put up a chance thread with stats that you haven’t earned yet. Life’s not that predictable, not everything is going to go exactly the way you want it to. Wait another year till you actually earn your volunteer hours and sat score</p>

<p>The title of this is am I on the right track. I obviously know I cant plan my life to a tee, but this is what i am very sure will happen. I know that nothing is concrete, but i wanted to see how I was doing. I was looking for constructive criticism, not bashing.</p>

<p>Get involved with ECs you enjoy and excel in them to the highest degree possible; that’s the secret. Get good grades, too.</p>
