Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I am looking at applying to maybe UVA, USC, UNC-Chapel Hill, NYU, Wake Forest, UCLA, UC-Irvine... next year.</p>

<p>I am a Junior and I got a 178 on the PSAT (57-reading 63-math 58-writing). I am going to take an SAT class as well as study hard. My my gpa is currently a 3.81 I was ranked 45/390 at the beginning of the year but I think my rank has since increased, but probably not by much.</p>

<p>I'm in National Honor Society, Student Council, and Key Club. I hope to join my schools DECA, which ranks annually in national competitions, as well as International Relations.
I will be in Spanish Honor Society and I will probably run for president or high position in it and probably another position in National Honor Society.
I have about 50 hours of community service.
I play the guitar and I ran spring and indoor track 9th and 10th grade. I also played my baseball from 9th to 10th grade. I play tennis at a local club but I don't know if that counts for anything. I am also a first-generation college student if that matters.</p>

<p>All of my core classes (including Spanish) are honors. At my school, we are only allowed to take one AP class Junior year and none freshman and sophomore years, so I am taking AP US History. </p>

<p>Also, if you have any suggestions to help improve my application that would be awesome.</p>

<p>Unless you are from NC or VA...I would say all of those schools on your list are reaches.</p>

4

<p>You have good chances at UCI.</p>

<p>Wake and Irvine are pretty good matches, but the others are reaches (except UVA or UNC if you are from one of those states).</p>
