<p>I'm wondering if I have any chance of getting into schools like:
Cornell
Harvard
Yale
Princeton
Stanford
Brown
Northwestern
Notre Dame
UCLA
UC Berkeley
Johns Hopkins
University of Chicago
University of Michigan
University of Pennsylvania
Boston College</p>
<p>My freshman year first semester I really messed up and got 3 A's, 3 B's, and 1 C. I took all honors and 1 AP class freshman year. However, after my first semester as a freshman I was diagnosed with a learning disability and was able to get my grades up.</p>
<p>Ethnicity is Indian and I am a female. </p>
<p>Second semester freshman year I got all A+.
1st and 2nd semester sophomore year all A+
1st and 2nd semester junior year all A+. </p>
<p>unweighted GPA: 3.75
Weighted: 4.44</p>
<p>7 AP classes with 5s in each one</p>
<p>Extra Curricular's:
Debate Team 4 years. Co-Captain senior year. Nationally ranked.
Symphony Orchestra 4 years. Been playing for 10 years.
Multi-cultural club 3 years
Pre-Med club 3 years
Intern at local hospital
Co-founder of schools intramural dodgeball team
900+ community service hours.
National Merit Semifinalist </p>
<p>SATs: 2250
ACT: 34 composite</p>
<p>I go to a well known private school with a rigorous curriculum and my school doesn't rank. </p>
<p>Also, would having a learning disability give me an edge or look bad to colleges?</p>
<p>I think overall i'm good but I am really scared my freshman semester 1 will really affect my applications. Chance me please.</p>

<p>It’s hard to say though without knowing much about how those higher schools (harvard, princeton etc) factor in you being Indian.</p>
<p>BC, UMich, UCLA, Johns Hopkins, Notre Dame, Northwestern, and UC Berkeley - you should have no problem at any of these. Although they are though to get into, you definitely have the stats to make it into all of these! Freshman year can be a hard adjustment, and college admissions staff members know that. Don’t worry too much about it. You have stellar grades otherwise.</p>
<p>U Chicago and Stanford are high matches or low reaches, depending on how you look at it. However, both of these institution value individuality and independent thinkers more than anything - so if you highlight those qualities on you app, you have more than an average shot of getting in! </p>
<p>The Ivies - Cornell, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Brown, and U Penn - are all pretty much crapshoots. Most kids applying have stats as great as yours. That’s not to say you have no chance though! In fact, I would be that you’ll get into at least 2-3 of these. It all depends on what they need in their incoming class - if you happen to fill a “space” they need, you’re totally in, because your stats are absolutely Ivy-worthy!</p>
<p>All in all, you will be successful wherever you go. You are clearly brilliant and motivated, and all of these colleges would be lucky to have you! I wish you all the best in this process!</p>
