<p>MIT and all the Ivies are gonna be tough only because of your GPA. EC’s can only make up for so much. Your EC’s are obviously great, but they have a very narrow focus, chess and science. I didn’t see very much leadership or community service/volunteer work. Colleges like to see that you are passionate about something (your case, science/chess), but you also need to be diverse, which is where your EC’s are a little lacking. You should get into a school like Tufts or Brandeis and maybe one Ivy/MIT.</p>
