<p>You’re right, you’re near 100% academically ( especially at Pitt), but have you run the Net Price Calculators? Penn State in particular is very expensive even in-state.
Just making sure all your bases are covered. :)</p>
<p>You have a good chance of getting into Duke ED if you can increase your GPA. Colleges love to see an upward trend</p>
<p>@nikhilravi I did really bad my freshman year. I end up with two B+ but currently I only have 1 B+ and 1 A-, the rest are all A or A+.</p>
<p>I agree with others, you should try and raise that GPA a little higher for Duke or UPenn. It’s nice you started with the ACT stuff already, and your ecs are looking good. </p>
<p>you should take sat and score over 2300 - that will give you an edge. and more APs to boost both GPAs</p>
<p>you have a good shot at Duke and penn, you are really good for the rest.</p>
