Perhaps a less selective school than Harvard, Yale, and Princeton because of your excellent extracurriculars. However, your tests scores are not that great, and 8 APs is not incredibly impressive (unless you only counted the ones from freshman through junior year). However, if you have a good essay and something that makes you stand out of the other applicants, then perhaps you would have a better chance.

except you're valedictorian or salutatorian, i will assure you that Yale, Princeton, and Harvard are out of attain for you. you are going to be able to desire to bear in ideas that those are not basically somewhat aggressive faculties, they are Ivy Leagues. i understand various people who had greater marks and rankings than you, with a lot of extra curriculars and different issues, and have been nonetheless rejected from Ivy Leagues. If I have been you, i might try for Cornell, nevertheless. you have a large shot at entering into someplace like NYU, too. basically bear in ideas that using fact a college isn't an Ivy, does no longer recommend its no longer the two useful training-sensible.

I had a 27 ACT and I'm at Northwestern University, which is considered an Ivy of the Midwest. It sounds like you have a shot at the Ivy Leagues, but you'd have to write killer essays and really impress the admissions office.
