Chance at a top schools

Chance Me / Match Me

<p>I am only going into my sophmore year but I am wondering how I am looking so far.</p>

<p>I have had straight A’s since the fifth grade.
I have a 4.33 weighted GPA.
This is the highest in this year’s freshman class.
My freshman year schedule was:
english 1 honors
biology 1 honors
integrated science 1 honors(I doubled in science)
Algebra 2 honors
required gym
and required langauge</p>

<p>For ec’s
Varsity football lettered as a freshman.
Debate team next year and NHS next year
Also lettered in weightlifting as a freshman and participated in track and field.</p>

<p>I also went to the Florida state science fair this year.</p>

<p>How am I looking and how an I improve?</p>

<p>edit: My main interest (as of now) are all math and science related and are all in the field of space technologies.</p>

<p>So are there any things I can do that would help me get into a school where these types of things are focused on.</p>

<p>you’re only a freshman…relax.</p>

<p>Just keep up your grades and do well on the SAT’s…you have plenty of time to prepare.</p>

<p>If your science project (the one you went to the state science fair with) means something to you, keep refining it and see if you can take it/submit it to Siemens/Intel/ISEF and related competitions.</p>

<p>I am told to relax but I hear that you need to start early and do very specific things to get into schools such as M.I.T. or caltech.</p>

<p>Also, I do plan on continuing my science fair project and as of now there is a good chance that I will be able to conduct my research at USF.</p>

<p>not really, i didn’t really mould my high school to fit what MIT or ivy leagues expected of me, i chose to do what i wanted to do and was passionate about. you probably might want to consider that, coz MIT looks more for passion than anything.
good luck</p>
