Can I get into Rice or Tulane?

<p>I go to school in Pflugerville Texas. I am seventh in my class of 524, unweighted GPA of 4.0 and weighted is 5.3333. 5 on AP english 3, 4 on AP statistics, courses now are AP biology, AP Calculus AB, AP English 4, and AP Macroeconomics. SAT is 780 math, 720 writing and 680 reading. I’m taking my SAT subject tests saturday. I plan on applying early decision</p>

<p>my extracurriculars are where I’m lacking, because I have to work full time in order to support myself. ( there are six kids in my family living off a teacher and restaurant manager salary). But I think working 2 jobs (44 hrs a week) and doing well in school is an achievement…?</p>

-60 hours tutoring in math
-volunteering at elementary school PTO meetings, Science fairs, field days</p>

<p>My other top choice school is Tulane and I’m applying early action in case my Rice application does not work out. I know if I increased my EC’s and community service my chances would be much higher… but those activities were hard enough to balance with a full time job and I really tried my best…</p>
