Chances for being admitted into Harvard, Princeton, etc? Recommendations?

Chance Me / Match Me

<p>I’m currently a junior at a high school in Florida. My transcript goes something like this: </p>

<p>Freshman Year:
Physical Science Honors
English 1 Honors
Geometry Honors
AP Human Geography (scored a 4)
Gym
Art 2-D I</p>

<p>Sophmore Year:
AP Psychology (scored a 5)
APWH (scored a 5)
Biology Honors
English Composition I and II (these are dual enrollment courses through the local community college, to beef up my GPA, not necessarily for University Credit. ‘Rigorous coursework.’)
Art 2-D II
Algebra II Honors</p>

<p>Junior Year I’m enrolled in:
APUSH
AP Biology
APES
AP Studio Art
Two dual enrollment courses, Beginning Spanish and College Algebra. </p>

<p>Extra Curriculars:
I tutored children in my community for 100+ hours
I’m in NHS and have done 40 hrs of community service
This year, we are planning to do a sort of AP Ambassador thing where we try to recruit kids into AP Classes, and make them more popular.
I have worked at McDonalds since January (not sure if it matters lol)</p>

<p>GPA: 4.6</p>

<p>I have yet to take my ACT, PSAT, or SAT, but a practice exam I had taken previously estimated me to receive a 28 on the ACT. I realize that I need to work on this.
I was wondering if you all thought that I was at least semi on track to be admitted to an ivy league school such as Harvard, Princeton, or anything like that? I’m open to recommendation! Thanks!</p>

<p>Also, white caucasian female, if it matters!</p>

3

<p>Have any safety planned for? I don’t think it is a good idea to pin all hopes on HYPS schools.</p>

<p>Is UF a place for you?</p>

4

<p>You should probably come back in a year. No one has great chances at those schools, and without test results it’s impossible to know if you are on the right track. You should work on your EC’s as well. Keep working hard though!</p>

5

<p>The schools you want will want to see 4 years of another language. You’re just starting Spanish now. Do you have other language classes you didn’t list here?</p>

6

<p>No, I don’t. I’m taking it at the community college, so even though I won’t have four years, I’ll have four whole credits by senior year. Spanish 1-4, if that makes any sense.</p>

7

<p>It would be, but its been my absolute dream to go to one of the Ivy League schools, particularly the ones mentioned above. I’ll be graduating Valedictorian as well, I just want some direction… like how to proceed with my academics for senior year.</p>

8

<p>How do you know you’re the valedictorian already? Does the person ranked number 2 have a significantly lower gpa than you? Let’s not get ahead of ourselves (or jinx anything). If your unweighted gpa is 3.8+, you’re in good standing. Just focus on excelling your junior year and continue to take APs senior year. We can get a better picture of you as an applicant once you have official test scores and have made it past the most pivotal year of high school.</p>

9

<p>Your ECs could do with some more leaderhsip. The top schools really look for that.</p>

10

<p>I’m not going to sugar coat anything, but your application wouldn’t pop out for the schools listed</p>

11

<p>Yeh, nothing is that good. Everything is below average. As of now, you have no shot. Come back next year for a better look.</p>

<p>Humbly agree with above posters…</p>
