I would really appreciate it if someone could give me their thoughts on my chances of being accepted to an Ivy league/top tier school or a UC. I plan on majoring in International Business or double majoring in Business and International Relations, with a minor in Russian. I will list my classes and extracurricular activities below. I attend a small public school in Northern California. Unfortunately the school does not offer many AP Courses and several of the teachers are not proficient in their subject. For example if you were to ask one for help on a science concept that they expect us to master, they will not be able to answer without googling the answer. Anyway, I thank you very much for your time in reviewing my statistics!
