Hey, I’m currently a sophomore in MD and I was wondering if I have chances at University of Maryland, Johns Hopkins, NYU, or UVA with these stats:

GPA = 2.9 - I know it’s terrible but I’m taking the hardest courses possible and I’m still rank 28 out of 340…which is surprising…guess my school is just stupid.

EC’s = Treasurer of Rotary Interact, President of Sophomore Class, Varsity Tennis and Cross Country, Mock Trial, and Model UN.

Extra things: I have done CTY (Center for Talented Youth) since the 2nd grade. It’s hosted by Johns Hopkins and students with exceptional SAT/ACT scores are the only ones accepted. So far, my highest score on the SAT has been a 2210, this year. I have received a bunch of awards for commitment and achievement freshman year too.

Plus, since I’m Indian, does that factor into the percentage?

Could answerers please post possibility of acceptance in order/provide any colleges which
meet my criteria (GPA will def. improve since right now I have a psycho chem teacher).
