Hey everyone, this is my first thread and I was just wondering if you could help me figure out the chances I have to get into certain schools based on my statistics.

Rank: 10 out of 312 (High rated high school - don’t know if that makes a difference??)
GPA: 99.34%
SAT: Math - 700 Critical Reading - 670 Writing - 680
AP Calc, AP US History, AP Euro History
Over 15 Honors Courses (Excelled in Every One of them)
Latin for Four Years (Senior Year - Independent Study)
Student Council, SADD, National Honor Society, Senior Leaders, Piano for 8 Years, Varsity Letter Winner For Tennis for 4 years, Vars. Letter Winner for Golf 2 years
Strong Letter of Recs, Great Essays
Intended Major : Pre- MEd (Does that make a difference for my chances?)

In addition, 680 SAT II for US History, and 610 for Biology (I am very concerned about the Biology score - room for much concern??)

I applied to these schools:

Notre Dame (Target school- wrote great essay for them because it’s my dream school)
Johns Hopkins
Villanova
Cornell
Penn
Bucknell

I realize a lot of these ivy league schools will be hard, but I really would be happy just getting into one or two of them because I realize their prestige is unmatched. My top school is definitely Notre Dame followed by Penn and Johns Hopkins.

If you guys could help me out with this that’d be so great. Thanks very much!
