<p>Stanford, Chicago, MIT, Cal, UCLA are not ivy. If you are “hoping” for ivy, you definitely don’t need to be accepted by Stanford, MIT, Chicago…so you most likely will be rejected…think about how you phrase questions…I think you are “smart” enough…no?</p>

<p>Sorry my bad haha, I meant Ivy-caliber colleges.</p>

4

<p>Bumppppppp</p>

5

<p>Anyoneeee?</p>

6

<p>I would say your guaranteed to get in everywhere except MIT, Harvard, and Stanford. You are definitely a qualified applicant for those schools though. They are basically a crapshoot for everyone. Good luck!</p>

7

<p>hmmmm, if you really are that good at martial arts, I’m sure you will get in to most of these colleges (class rank might be nice to include?)</p>

<p>Judging from the amount of ap exams you took, the scores you got on them, and the rigor of your senior course load, I think colleges will definitely get the idea you like to challenge yourself and that you excel in the most difficult courses. Your stats are solid in my opinion. But I’ll be honest, there is no guarantee at all you’ll get into your desired schools. My cousin had similar stats to yours and awesome extracurriculars. he didn’t get into any of the ivies; i believe most of it is luck in college admissions but i really hope you do well!</p>

<p>Oh if you have the time, chance me?</p>

<p>Take what I say with a grain of salt though, I am only 16 and a rising senior.</p>
