what are the odds?

<p>Hey, I'm a current high school junior who is looking at some colleges, namely UCLA, UC Berkeley, and Johns Hopkins to attend in the future. What do you suppose my chances of getting in are? I plan to apply under bioengineering. Here are my statistics and whatnot:</p>

<p>SAT Reasoning:
1st try: 2040 (690 critical reading, 670 math, 680 writing)
2nd try: 2160 (740 critical reading, 740 math, 680 writing)</p>

<p>SAT Subjects:
Math 2C: 740
Biology M: 760
Literature: 660</p>

<p>Sophomore Year GPA (1 honors course):
3.66 (both semesters)
with honors english</p>

<p>Junior Year GPA (3 honors/AP courses):
3.83 unweighted, 4.33 weighted (1st semester, 2nd semester more than likely to be the same)
with honors english, AP biology, AP statistics
projected 5's on AP biology and statistics exams (based on solid 5's on multiple practice tests)</p>

<p>Senior Year Schedule:
AP physics
AP calculus BC
AP English literature
finite/discrete mathematics (college course)
Government/Economy
Weight training</p>

<p>Courses taken at community college:
General Psychology (A)
Intermediate Mandarin (A)</p>

<p>Extracurricular/Volunteer Work:
- six years piano, including National Musician's Guild award (national level)
- helped coordinate charity concert (raised money to send to poverty stricken Tanzania)
- approx. 200 hours community service, including volunteering at the local hospital and science camp counseling
- freshman year - freshman football team
- sophomore year - JV football team
- junior year - varsity football team
- senior year - will be on varsity football team again</p>

<p>So, do I have a decent chance at getting into any of those colleges? Are there any other colleges I should be considering, given my intended major and qualifications? Thanks in advance for your input.</p>

<p>No chance at Hopkins</p>

<p>:( no chance at all at hopkins? damn. oh well, that was like my super reach school anyways. i'm a california resident...so i'll be applying primarily to UC's. what are my chances at getting into berkeley and UCLA?</p>

<p>don't give up, the words of one person shouldn't stop you form dreaming, and hell, what makes you so sure that their words are true, anyway, looking at Johns Hopkins 80% out of state, and average SAT verbal is 673 and average SAT math is 705 (quoted Princeton Review Top 351 colleges [2005]), So yeah, where's this one person's opinion getting his sources from. so I say good luck and go for it, and also average GPA: 3.66 :)</p>
