Can I get into Yale?

<p>I’m not a legacy, I’m middle class, white. GPA 96.5, top 1% of class of 300. SAT’s 2200, SAT 2’s, 750, 740, 800, ACT 34. Lots of AP courses, above average athlete(Although not college qualified). Class officer, above average with a musical instrument(all county, but not all state), and run a small revenue producing website. I know these questions must be asked all the time…but can I get into an Ivy.</p>

<p>No. You have to have won a nobel peace prize to get into Yale.</p>

<p>It will be very hard.</p>

<p>President Bush went to Yale…so there is hope for everyone. He did it all on his own didn’t he…lol ??</p>

<p>spikes – yes, you certainly could get into Yale. You have the academics, scores and ECs that most kids who are accepted have. Hopefully, you understand the difference between CAN and WILL. While you don’t have anything that would prevent Yale from accepting you – that doesn’t mean that you will be accepted.</p>

<p>Do your research and figure out what colleges you really want to attend (including ivies) and them apply. Realize that very, very few kids are accepted – but you might be one of them.</p>

<p>state? school?</p>

<p>i agree with post #5.</p>
