<p>Gender: Female
Grade: Rising senior
GPA: 4.9 out of 5 (my school only does weighted GPA)
So far in high school all honors and 2 AP (Physics, Statistics) courses (plan on taking 3 more APs next year -- Calc, French, Environmental Science) --> also you should know that my high school does not let you take any APs before junior year
ACT: English: 35, Math: 34, Reading: 30, Science: 30. Composite: 32
SAT2: Math 1: 730, Math 2: 680 (planning on taking French in Oct to replace Math 2)</p>

<p>4 year varsity soccer
4 year varsity lacrosse (captain) (all central league honors)
Volunteered a whole summer for Alex's Lemonade Stand
Coach youth league lacrosse team
National Honors Society
I'm in other clubs but I am not a president or anything so I don't think it matters..</p>

<p>I want to play for the Amherst or Tufts lacrosse team which I know will help me get in, but if that does not happen what do you think are my chances of getting into:</p>

<p>Amherst
Tufts
Columbia
Rice
Washington University in St. Louis
Claremont McKenna</p>

<p>And also, what would you consider safety or target schools for me?</p>

<p>Hey. I’m looking into Rice and WashU as well so I know how competetive they are. I think your ACT score is in the middle 50% for both. Have you taken the SAT? You might score better on it than the ACT.
Your soccer and lax experience is GREAT! :slight_smile: Congrats.
I would probably focus my application on that if I were you.
You haven’t taken very many APs but if you explain your limitation at school, I’m sure they will understand.
GOOD LUCK! :)</p>

<p>please chance me back

<p>As long as you explain your lack of AP’s, I think you should be ok. You have leadership with being a captain and your GPA and act scores are great! You should be a good match for most, but I’m not entirely sure about Columbia. That school is much tougher than most to get into because it is an ivy. I’d say that would be your reach.</p>
