Can someone please help me with my college list/ add to it and tell me if im being too optimistic or not!
Hello to anyone reading and willing to help. I dont know whether i have an ok college list because i am an upcoming junior and no teachers have helped me at all. My basic details are that: i took 13 honors classes (all IB prep classes in 9th and 10th) doing Ibdp. I have a 3.6 uw but a 4.37 w gpa. I have a predicted 43/45 on ib exams, and have gotten consistent 1500s in practice SAT exams. I have a 4.35 uc gpa and also i have improved my gpa from uw 2.95 to a 3.35 then will get better later too. I have good ECs and not worried about financial aid at all. I also am aiming to get a scholarship for track but might not get one either. But now basically my list is: Reach: colgate Ucb Rice Uta Ucla Georgetown Duke Gtech Ivies Bc Northeastern Stanford Notre dame Umich Uchicago jhu wustl Target: utoronto Uva Villanova Syracuse Uci uflorida Rutgers Binghamton Ucd Upitt Bu Ucsd Wisconsin Uwash Uconn Safeties: Umass Boulder Pepperdine Penn state Mich state Twin cities Asu uvm
I dont know what to add, what to remove, and also i am extremely committed to academics like SAT, IB exams and IB and helping my gpa, while getting my ECs to be good as they possibly can. I just wanted to ask if someone can help with my college list and if these are good liek if they are reaches and targets and whatnot, and if im even to be considered because of my 2.95 in freshman year, thank you to all who can help🙏
