Which schools can I apply to?

Applying to College
1

<p>So, some of my stats are not good at all because I went to a magnet school in the area that was very competitive and focused of science and technology. I am from Manhattan, New York. I do not know where to apply for college, I've always wanted to go to an Ivy League School, but there is a slim to null chance of that happening. My Mother went to UVA so if I apply I will be treated the same as an in-state student. I am currently a Third-year in high school.</p>

<p>My List of prospective schools (I know that Ivy's are practically non-existant for me but hope cause ya'know):
University of Virginia
University of Pennsylvania
Columbia
PennState
University of Chicago
Northwestern U
U Michigan-Ann Arbor
Cornell
Duke
Virginia Tech
Brown</p>

<p>My GPA Unweighted is (3.5)
SAT (Taken Twice) (Only once score available other is the march 2014):
Math: 800
Writing: 690 (Definitely improved)
Reading: 680 (Most likely stayed the same small chance it broke 700)
Total Score: 2170</p>

<p>AP Courses Completed:
AP Biology
AP Calculus AB</p>

<p>Currently Taking:
AP Calculus BC
AP Macroeconomics
AP Microeconomics
AP Language and Comp
AP Physics B</p>

<p>Senior Year:
Post AP Multivariable Calculus/Linear Algebra
AP Statistics
AP Environmental Science
AP Government (Just the US not Comp)
AP Literature</p>

<p>Extracurriculars:
I am the founder of a Charity/Volunteer Organization
President of Investment Club

<p>We literally cannot tell you anything until we have some standardized test scores. Say you get a on the SAT 2200+ or 33+ on the ACT, I would say you have a good shot at Penn State (probs would be a safety), Cornell (high match) and UVA. I don’t know about the others.</p>

<p>Yeah I was typing the courses and I forgot to add than it (its been edited)</p>

<p>okay, thanks. The 2170 is good. What are you planning on majoring in? If you’re looking for a STEM focus, Duke and Columbia would be good places to apply to. If you are looking for business, UChicago and UVA would be good options. </p>

<p>Business and STEM are my interests, I want to get a double major finance and STEM try to work in investment banking. Im more worried I dont have whats necessary to get into these schools.</p>

<p>Your list is too reach heavy. You need safety schools amd more match.</p>

<p>Which schools are those? is more or less why I came here. I haven’t really thought about whats appropriate and no one seems to be able to give a clear answer.</p>
