<p>I am entering the equivalent of senior year in my country, doing the international baccalaureate. I'd say by any standards my stuff is good, but being isolated from the USA I'd like someone else's assessment if applying to the ivies is Realistic.</p>
<p>I will be applying to Harvard, Yale, UPenn, maybe princeton and maybe Stanford as well as a couple other ivies.</p>
<p>Will prob do SCEA for Yale which is my first choice!</p>
<p>As far as grades I am predicted a 43 (out of 45) right now, with a feasible aim of bumping to 44 or even 45. If this means nothing to you: I am (according to my current prediction) in the 98th percentile worldwide.</p>
<p>I also take quite demanding courses:</p>
<p>English A1 HL
French B HL
Economics HL
History HL
Mathematics SL
Ecosystems and Societies SL</p>
<p>I have a decent amount of fluff:
*student council rep in 7th-9th</p>
<p>*youth council rep (representing young people in my city district)</p>
<p>*Water polo player, have played for national team for boys 93+</p>
<p>*several international MUN conferences (one at university level)</p>
<p>*European Youth Parliament member, was chosen on a national level to represent my country at an itnernational session</p>
<p>*Recipient of an annual award from my compulsory school for embodying school spirit, being good role model, flufluff, etc :P</p>
<p>*Will be attending the Stanford onliune high school education program for gifted youth program this fall (taking political philosophy)</p>
<p>*active sea cadet, just got home from the summer school/camp with a statement by a lieutenant and lieutenant-colonel saying good things about my leadership skills</p>
<p>*will get stellar recommendations. already had one for the above stanford thing and it was gold, albeit very polished by my teacher ^^</p>
<p>My SAT was 2200 (730/740/730), and im unsure whether i should try a retake or setlle for what is undeniably a good score. satII's i will take in the fall, prob french w/ listening, eng lit, math 1</p>
<p>Would you CC people say I have a good shot at the above schools? Or am i deluding myself? Considering that admissions officers will be more used to american credentials, what will they think of the above?= (i have more fluff but im writing this off the top of my head and cant think of more)</p>
<p>Thanks for your comments!</p>
