What Are My Chances Of Getting Into Duke Or Stanford

[Jenneh341]

Hello. I am currently a sophomore in high school in metro Atlanta. Duke and Stanford are my dream schools that I would like to go to. As of right now, my cumulative GPA ( Average GPA of my freshman and 1st semester of sophomore year) and unweighted GPA is 3.33, and my weighted GPA is 3.5. I am working hard to increase my GPA to a 3.7 or higher by the time senior year starts (the time I start applying for schools). My current class rank is 50 out of 548 sophomores. By the time of graduation in 2016, I will have taken 8 AP classes throughout high school. I participate in cheer at my school (By the way I am really passionate about cheering). I also am looking to get into DECA, Spanish Club, the National Honors Society and MAYBE....FBLA. I haven't taken the SAT or SAT yet, but I am preparing and will take it junior year. I would like to know what I need to do in order to be more appealing to these colleges and in I am on the project track I need to be, will Duke or Stanford accept me?

This is an English site, you might be better asking on an American site.

Hi Jenneh, this is a UK site so I wouldn't expect to get the answers your looking for here if I were you.

As the others have said we are based in UK. I dont understand much of what you are saying eg GPA, DECA, FBLA, SAT etc. Glad to see that you have a lot of ambition and hope you achieve what you want.
