Hi CC’ers,

This is my first post, exciting! I am applying to colleges soon and I would like to know my chances for a potential list of schools I want to apply to. Just some background, I am a Mexican girl from so cal and I have a 4.1 gpa (3rd in my class) with a 2030 SAT score. I have been really active with extracurricular activities on and off campus (I have more than enough to fill the entire available list in the common app). I am a varsity athlete and I do karate out of season. I also have a strong list of honors and awards from school and activities I am a part of. My relationship with my teachers is great and I expect really insightful and positive recommendations from them. If I had to point out a weakness in my application it would be that I have no work experience in paid positions.

What are my chances at:

Yale
Harvard
Stanford
Brandeis
UPenn
Scripps
Georgetown
Pomona
Claremont McKenna
Swarthmore
UCLA
UC Berkeley
Northwestern
Reed

Thanks!
