<p>It’s way to early to say anything. I would say to look into the ACT because you have lots of time. Keep working hard and get more involved. Yet keep in mind, don’t get involved simply to pad your resume, get involved in something that means something to you.</p>

<p>Well, I’m laughing at the super reaches…they have nothing in common. MIT and Amherst could not be more different…but at least you have babysitting as an extra-curricular. Do you have an interest in a major? You haven’t really done many academic ECs so I have no clue. Your school has 20% going to top colleges and they don’t offer APs? strange…</p>

<p>My school is a pretty small high school, but it is exceptional with very difficult classes.</p>

<p>Also, to be honest, I picked these 10 schools from random out of a list of 40; I haven’t begun to narrow it down.</p>
