Would I even have chances at these schools?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hi everyone! I'm new here and have a newly-developed obsession with worrying about getting into college.</p>

<p>I'm currently a junior in high school in Virginia. I get all those emails from colleges due to my name being submitted from taking AP tests and the PSATs and whatnot, and it's been getting me thinking recently. I really need to start thinking about where I should go!</p>

<p>I'm interested in a few colleges: William & Mary, Wake Forest, University of Richmond, and maybe UNC or UNCW. </p>

<p>My grades are fairly good! I've gotten mostly all A's and B's, except for two C's in eighth grade algebra. My GPA is currently a 3.8, and should go up with the grades I'm getting this nine weeks. </p>

<p>My school unfortunately doesn't have many ECs to offer, but I've joined a few of the ones we do have. I'm a board member of the Key Club, a member of the National Honor Society, the French Honor Society, soon-to-be French Club co-president, and I still have next year to do more. I'm taking my SAT's in May and I've been studying for them for a while. </p>

<p>What would my chances of being accepted to those colleges be? I know they're all very selective but I really have the initiative to do well and hopefully can do alright; people I've talked to at school have highly praised me and feel confident college acceptance will be a breeze for me, but I'm not so sure! What do you all think? Thanks!</p>

<p>Test scores? Class rank? Specific extracurriculars and awards?</p>

<p>(Also, FYI, colleges don’t look at any grades prior to freshman year so you’re all good!)</p>

<p>Since my school didn’t offer AP classes to freshmen and only one to sophomores, I’ve taken one AP exam (world history) and I scored a 3. I hope to do better this year… My SAT’s will be in May and I feel confident I’ll do okay.</p>

<p>And what would a specific extracurricular be? I do different volunteering efforts with Key Club, and my school doesn’t really give out academic awards… </p>

<p>Also, thanks for letting me know! I was under the impression all credit-bearing courses would be shown to colleges, and Algebra I was credit-bearing.</p>
