Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hiiiii, I am currently a junior at a high school in New Jersey and was wondering what my chances are in getting into my dream schools...</p>

<p>Classes:

<p>ECs:

Spanish H Society- Soph, senior
Red Cross- Junior, Senior
Peace Ambassadors- Junior, Senior
NHS (hopefully)- senior</p>

<p>I've played rec soccer for 4 years.
Volunteer at a Sunday school every week, at a nursing home, have volunteered at a Color me Rad race, volunteering at my doctors office (starting in June- planning on turning into an internship), and I work at a preschool every Friday.</p>

<p>PSAT: 1700
SAT: haven't taken yet
ACT: haven't taken yet</p>

<p>I want to go Pre Med (interested in being a pediatrician), somewhat into business but mostly med.</p>

<p>Dream Schools: Boston U, UCLA, Northeastern, U Chicago, USC, NYU</p>

<p>what are my chances and is there anything I can do to improve them?</p>

<p>How have you done in your classes (GPA)?</p>

<p>Without hard numbers, it is impossible to tell, but if your SATs are on par with your PSAT, UCLA and UChicago are out of reach, for example.</p>

<p>I agree with bodangles. But no matter what your grades are, I would say UChicago is a reach, just because it’s pretty difficult for just about anyone…</p>

<p>Sorry, completely forgot about gpa. Weighted gpa is a 3.7, not sure about unweighted. I’m taking my first SAT in May and shooting for a 1900. </p>

<p>Do you think there is anything specifically I can do to up my chances? Thank you for your responses! </p>

<p>If weighted is 3.7, unweighted is probably less, maybe a 3.0, 3.2? Can anybody offer a better guess?</p>

<p>Get your GPA higher and get a higher SAT score than 1900 (2100+), for those schools. Otherwise, apply to more matches and safeties than reaches.</p>

<p>@bodangles okay, I’m gonna try my best. Thank you for your input!</p>
