This might be the only obstacle you could encounter. (With no established record, the profile sheet sent from your h.s. gc will be scrutinized pretty carefully, I would imagine.) However, I wouldn’t be overly concerned…it’ll just be a bit harder. Selective schools, after all, take students who have been home schooled or who have gone to very, very small rural/private schools. They want “diversity”, right? So, don’t worry too much.

As far as not having ECs for 9th and 10th grade, I can’t really address this. Your test scores are impressive enough where this might be overlooked…I don’t know. Admissions to many of your schools is unpredictable. Why one student gets in and another with better stats does not is anyone’s guess. I do think, though, that you should try for whatever college interest you. The worst that can happen is that they’ll say no; however, if you don’t try, you’ll go through your life wondering “what if”.
