Ivy worthy?
I'm not sure what grade you're in, but if you're a junior, I would recomend trying to get into the 700's for verbal. Otherwise, your extracurriculars and awards are outstanding. I would definitely apply, you have a good chance of getting in!
Reply:Yes. You just need to have something that know one else has! You need to outshine the other applicants. I will tell you most of the people who apply to Ivy's have what you have. Good Luck!
Reply:wow.. DO YOU HAVE A SOCIAL LIFE?





but yes i think you can get into an ivy....
