Hello, I am 16, and am currently in the tenth grade. I have taken the highest possible classes available; all honors thus far. I have doubled-up in math this year, taking Algebra II and Precalculus. I just took the PSAT and am very nervous. I desperately want to go to WUSTL.

Basically, I want to know if I am on the right track to getting accepted into an ivy or ivy-measurable. Also, tell me possible schools.

STATS:

SATIhoping 1350+)
SATII:
PSAT/NMSQTtook in oct., hoping for a 1350+)
Classes:
9th grade- honors Geometry
honors World History
honors Intro to Chem/Physics
honors English
German II
10th grade- honors Algebra II
honors English-writing
honors Biology
honors U.S. History
honors Precalculus
honors German 4 (skipped German 3, will this help me or hurt me--I love GERMAN!)

(What sucks is my school doesn't have AP's until senior year, I have been taking the most advanced courses available, so until senior year, I will have to deal with honors.)


GPA in 9th: 4.0 unweighted
4.6313 weighted (health, gym, and electives brought it down)

GPA in 10th: Do not know yet, but I have all A's
Class Rank: 7/719 (will definately go up because I have 6 honors this year as compared to the 4 I had last year)

Extra-curriculars: Swimming (9-12)
FBLA (9-12)
German club (10-12)
Community service for blood center (many hours)
Community service for summer swim team (2 hours a day, every day)

Future NHS member
Taught myself and play Piano

Awards: Nominated for many achievments, honors societies and other things. I am a member of PEOPLE TO PEOPLE and recently accepted being a member of THE NATIONAL SOCIETY OF HIGH SCHOOL SCHOLARS. Who's who.

Schools: CORNELL #1 (hopefully), Yale, Columbia, cornell, Carnegie Mellon, U Mich, Rice, U Penn. BUT ULTIMATELY WUSTL.

By the way, I am content on being an architect. And obviously, I want to major in architecture at WUSTL.


So, am I on the right track to getting into some of these schools, if so, which? AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, do I have a chance at getting into WUSTL Architectural School??????????
