Smart enough to have these stats but not smart enough to figure out your chances on your own? Assuming this is real.
Dude you’re set for the bigger schools relaaaax. U of Chicago and Ivies might be a stretch, but that is only because they are a stretch for everyone.
Hey, it looks like we’re very similar applicants!
Your stats are perfect. You’ve definitely taken a rigorous course load. Your ECs are good, but I don’t think they’ll stand out among the thousands of kids applying to these schools. Most students of your caliber probably have more in the way of leadership positions, to be honest.
I’d say you’re definitely in Penn State, and most likely U of Michigan. Admission to your other top schools will probably come down to your recs/essays.
Do you have any other safety schools in mind?
@ThatGuyWhoIsBad Whether or not this post is real, your reply is not helpful.
OP, you have great stats, the Ivies and Stanford are reaches for everyone but your ECs, GPA, and scores put you above most.
Have you looked to see if you can afford all of these schools? Check out the links below for financial safeties.

What is your intended career?
I may have phrased my response rudely but cmon, he took AP Calc in 8th grade, took a ton of college classes already and self studied physics C. Add this to the perfect ACT and GPA and I’d be very surprised if he was denied anywhere.
You have perfect stats but your ECs don’t really have much focus to them. Luckily, your essays and the way you present your ECs in your application can make up for that. I think that you will get into at least 1 top 10 school if you strengthen your subjective side. Please chance back?
