<p>You're set big guy. Go party.</p>

<p>If you're going for Economics, UChicago trumps all of the schools you mentioned :P</p>

<p>harvard , Crapshoot, as good a shot as everyone else in the world that is not famous (5% at best, aka DONT COUNT ON IT)
yale , Decent shot , better than Harvard, Probably 7 or 8%, your scores are good and yale likes high SAT's
mit , Probably about the same as Yale
princeton , Eh, about the same as Harvard, Don't count on it...
upenn , Decent chance, same as MIT/Yale
berkely - Why?
and stanford - probably a little less than MIT/Yale</p>

<p>Goto UofC, better than all those schools and easier to get into (I beleive 20-25% acceptance, maybe 15%)</p>

<p>So here are my guesses-
Harvard- Waitlist/Reject
Yale- Accepted/Waitlist
MIT- Waitlist/Accepted
Princeton- Waitlist/Reject
UPENN- Accepted/Waitlist
Berkeley - Why? Accepted
Stanford- Waitlist/Semi-Maybe Accepted
UofC- 75% acceptance probably</p>

<p>good luck my friend....</p>

<p>first try to spell volunteer and application properly before trying to get into Harvard...</p>

<p>Actually, an unhooked individual applicant could have a chance that is significantly lower than 9%, since the 9% overall includes recruited athletes, development cases, legacies, and URMs.</p>

<p>Hmm..are you an international, by the way?</p>

<p>Your cricket, prefect and wording of your EC's threw me off. </p>

<p>But overall, if you are an US citizen, I would say that while your academic profile is good enough, you need to show more depth and clarity with your EC's- how do they relate to your intended major? How do they indicate your passion?</p>

<p>apply to northwestern as well bro, and your not looking to bad either...</p>
