<p>Question, why AP macro and not AP Econ so you can take the ap test for both micro and macro, and ususally you need micro first, or its recommended at least… just wonder</p>

<p>PSAT 195? I think you mean 1950?? If so, then I’d try and bring your sats (which are ususally I think a little easier) up to a 2050 or 2100 and I think you’d have a good shot at a variety of schools, just aim for a few where you’re in the middle 50% range and a few you’re just under or at the bottom because you have a lot of vollunteer work and decent activities, so make sure you write strong essays too, and you’ll be fine… use collegeboard.com to find the ranges</p>

<p>emilycm- PSAT not SAT. PSAT’s are NOT OVER 2400.</p>

<p>All the Ivies, Stanford, MIT and Duke will all be double reaches, IMO. I’d say Emory would be good to look into. Washington St. Louis is probably as far as you want to reach, if your SATs don’t get up to 2250+. If they do, then you might want to try for Cornell or maybe U Penn, as those are the easiest Ivies to get into, but I’d still go for Washington because it is a much happier, more caring place.</p>

<p>oh i forgot to add</p>

<p>i also did a summer at harvard, i took two college courses</p>

<p>principles of genetics
biological perspectives of HIV/AIDS</p>

<p>i earned eight college credits</p>

<p>and this summer i’m going NYLF (nat. youth leadership forum) on medicine
and i’m going abroad to volunteer in a hospital</p>

<p>in other words you are rich and your school has huge grade inflation. Try UCLA or Berkeley. You might make it. Your SAT scores are on the low side, but depending on how your gpa is calculated you may have a good chance. Btw, I doubt most of those honors you take are UC approved.</p>
