so my freshman year, i didn't do too well. getting 5 B's and and 9 A's.
i didn't do too well in my 1st semester sophomore year either, getting a C in APUSH and a B in Bio.
However in 2nd semester sophomore year, I got straight A's in the following classes: APUSH, Chem, English 2, Honors Pre-Calculus, Honors Bio, and Latin 1

Currently, I'm taking these following classes in my junior year: AP Calc BC, AP Chem, AP Bio, English 3, Latin 2

First semester, I got straight A's. 2nd Semester however, I got an A in every class except for Chem, which I got a B+ in.

As for AP tests, I got a 3 in APUSH and I'm pretty positive I got a 5 in AP Calc BC, AP Chem, and AP Bio.

I'm also involved in extracurricular activities, being in student council for the all 4 years of my high school career, being in ASB one year, playing various instruments, volunteering at a hospital, tutoring, and placing top 3 in league for hurdles.

Do I have a decent chance of getting into schools like USC, UCI, UCSD, UCLA, and Berkeley?

Also, do you think I have a chance at getting into Harvard, Princeton, Cornell, and Vanderbilt?

I'm worried that my B in AP Chem and my first 3 semesters of high school will jeopardize my chances of getting into college

No test scores?

I don't have time to calculate your GPA for you. Please update the post with it.

If it is decent, the following applies:

UCI, UCSD are matches.

UCLA would be reach that you could make a match for depending on your tests.

USC and Vanderbilt are high reaches.

The Ivies are pretty much unattainable. Your ECs aren't that good. Give me your GPA. No one is gonna waste their time here calculating it for you. Even if your test scores are really high(2300+), your ECs are weak compared to other applicants.

If GPA is weak, all schools are reaches.
