<p>You're on the right track for a "good" school. You might be able to make it at a top 20 school. But have you considered any others? There are other schools out there. And I'm not talking about community college. I wouldn't go to a community college if my life depended on it.</p>

<p>IMO I think you’re on track for an ivy. I mean my counselors are telling me that I have a chance at an Ivy (not a big one, but its still feasible), and my resume isn’t half as long as yours, nor are my scores as good</p>
