<p>Do I have a shot? </p>
<p>I started my ec's pretty late, but they're all things I like. I've had fun doing them, and a lot of them center around volunteering.</p>

College Class Year: 2015
High School: Public
High School Type: I'm part of my high school's first graduating class. The other high school in my district has had top kids go to ivies and other top schools every year. </p>
<p>Academics:</p>
<p>GPA - Unweighted: 3.85 (On an A=90-100=4.0, B=80-89=3.0... scale), 3.88-3.89 by the time junior year ends with how my grades are going
Class Rank: top 10%
Class Size: 118</p>
<p>A big thing that has worried me is my grades. They seem like they'd be too low for USC and other such schools, and I only have an UW gpa of 3.85 on a A=90-100, B=80-89 scale.</p>
<p>My school doesn't have literal honors classes, but we have a thing called pre advanced placement and gt placement. Both are given more wait than normal classes but right below AP and IB classes. So, I'm thinking that colleges will consider them honors classes, and as of now here are my grades. Waaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy to many A-'s. When junior year ends I should have: 5 B's, 13 A-'s (90-93), and 18 A's and A+'s(94-100).</p>
