Current Junior, what are my chances?

Goals: Most of the selective schools (Ivies, Emory, GeorgiaTech, MIT, CalTech, Duke, Emory, etc) ← most of these are probably out of my league, but I still want to know
I think most of these are my match schools: University of Florida, University of Miami, University of Maryland, Florida State University
Major: Computer Science and Mathematics (ik that my APCSP score is bad, but my teacher was kinda bad, and gonna try get a 5 on AP Computer Science A, doing pretty well so far)
Demographics: African American, Male, middle class
School: somewhat competitive public school in South Florida (with a few students making it into very selective schools every year)

SAT/ACT: I will be taking the October SAT and am going to try and study for it and get my reading up (I have done several math practices and have gotten perfect scores), but my PSAT10 score was 1460, with 740 in math and 720 in reading. I am pretty sure I have improved since then, so im hoping for at least a 1500, hopefully mid 1500s
SAT Subject Tests: So far I’ve done the chemistry subject test and have gotten an 800, and am planning on taking math 2 and the biology subject tests at the end of the year

AP scores: AP HUG 5 AP Calc AB 5, AP Chemistry 5, AP CSP 4,
I am in the Cambridge program and have currently passed aice math, aice critical thinking, aice general paper, and aice international. (I didnt say my scores because I did kinda bad because I didnt try on these) I will be attempting to finish my Cambridge diploma this year.

Ranked 3 out of 619
GPA: 4 out of 4 (unweighted), 5.3191 out of 6 (weighted)
Freshman Year: Pre-AICE English, Spanish 3 Honors, Algebra 2 Honors, Pre-AICE Chemistry, Principles of Engineering Honors, AP Human
Sophomore Year: AICE General Paper, AP Calc AB, AP Chem, AICE International History, AP CSP, AICE Thinking Skills, AP Psych, (DE College Algebra)
Junior Year (CURRENT): AP Biology, AP Calculus BC, AP USH, AP Computer Science Principles, AICE English Language, AICE Global Perspectives, AICE Marine Science
Senior Year: unknown as of now

Extracurriculars:
4H National Club (9th,10th,11th) (Current historian)
Mu Alpha Theta member (10th,11th)
Science National Honor Society member (10th,11th)
Science Olympiad (9th,10th,11th) + 2nd place in write it do it in regionals, and made it to the state competition for Florida
Cross country (10th,11th)
Track(10th,planning to join again this year and get a good time)

Awards: AP Scholar with Distinction, Science Olympiad medals for write it do it and for our team going to states, award for best in math in my grade level in 9th grade
Recommendation letters: most likely from two of my math and science teachers, both of them would have had me for two years, with my math teacher having me for 2 years.

Thank you for taking the time to chance me!

There was a similar post (with almost the same wording. Only that poster claimed to Chinese and not AA:

Something doesn’t pass the smell test.

Hello, I am his friend, this isnt a scam, we go to the same school, and I am rank 3, not rank 1 ( he takes too many classes ngl, he kinda tryhard). The reason we have similar classes is because we took similar classes, he was the one who told me about this, and I asked to copy and paste his wording cuz im lazy, and we had similar stuff anyway, just had to delete a lot of things I didn’t do and add a few others, like I did more track and cross country and was a part of 4H for 3 years. I did get a higher PSAT score than him tho :smiley: (no flame obviously)

Better chances than your friend. You got the grades/projected better SAT, and better AP scores. Plus you’re African American.

Excellent profile and prospects if you keep doing what you are doing. None of those schools is out of reach for you.

In case you are not aware of the programs, may I suggest you look into the competitive summer programs for strong URM STEM students? SAMS at CMU and MITES at MIT. Both very difficult to get into, but as a high talent African American male your chances are better than most. Both programs are free, and as a Mu Alpha Theta member you can apply for a scholarship through MAO for up to $2K to cover any travel costs from Florida. You should also consider FSU Young Scholars. Best of luck!

Edit to add: also, MIT has a terrific and free two week summer math program that might interest you: MIT Mathroots.

Thank you for your advice! I will look into some competitive summer programs in the future though, because I could definitely work on that.
