<p>Hey im a junior in high school and i was wondering if someone could review my changes of getting into schoools.

I am on the regional soccer team(westcoast)
I play for one of the top soccer clubs in the country
I have 8 varsity letters-First team all state.
Debate Team
Chior-Company
I am class president
Great school in rich community-Top 5%
I can easily pay, i dont need financial help
And my dad knows some people being at his work position...
Notre Dame, Standford, NYU, Yale, Duke or any others? Or am icrazy? haha thanks for your help. IF NOT WHAT DO YOU SUGGEST I DO TO HELP IN THE NEXT YEAR?! Thanks.</p>
<p>you're fine. what is ur class rank?</p>
<p>I am not posotive but in the top 5% for sure. What schools do you think?</p>
<p>Haha sorry guys but can anyone reply i need some help....</p>
<p>I dont think your chances are that good..your an affluent white male with sub-par stats at the schools ur applying to. Now tell me why a college would want you over a financially challenged minority who has worked their tail off...while you are loaded and have nothing outstanding.</p>
<p>How old are you? Well just from what every single person has told me they will accept someone who doesn't need finanical aid over someone that does. I understand the minority approach. With a 4.3 how did I not work hard? How many minorities are top 20 in a sport in the country? Or wrong approach?</p>
<p>ok if your 'top 20' then you should be getting recruited</p>
<p>ur in the top 20 in the country???</p>
<p>then u should be recruited, like wangg said</p>
<p>you should be getting full rides to harvard....</p>
<p>They start send of junior year. Already talked to by San Diego and some schools. What woudl you guys recommend for Film Schools? Or bussiness? NYU for film?</p>
<p>You have a great chance at all if you're recruited for soccer. Otherwise I agree with the poster that said your SATs are too low for a white, affluent kid from a good high school at all but ND and NYU.</p>
<p>Thanks zagat what do you recommend doing? If i can pay my own way. I mean i know twins last year who had 4.0's and got rull rides to Cornell with nothing else. I know tons of kids who are doing way worse than i am that are getting into these schools. What should i do for the Cornell's, Yale's, Stanfords?</p>
<p>Being white, affluent and having had the benefit of a top school, they woll expect you to have above their average SAT scores. I would focus on getting recruited if I were you. Top 20 in the nation should certainly make you desireable at a DI school. </p>
<p>Since money isn't an issue, you might want to consult one of the organizations that help you get recruited. There's one that specializes in top colleges called something like ivy sports recruiters. </p>
<p>Also, at top colleges that are need blind, and most top are, not needing aid will not help you. It helps at lesser schools.</p>
<p>Also, get some intensive one-on-one test prep.</p>
