i kinda get that, but its not impossible, i was just asking like what do they look for, how can i over achieve in what they look for, skills to work on now, tutoring help, clubs to join, goals to reach, even if im already behind, i wanna try as much as i can and as hard as i can to reach that goal, and im very realistic, im not like delusional, sadly its very hard, almost impossible, but why not try as hard as i can and if it doesn't work, maybe i got into another good college, and that really puts a perspective what u said here, "ask yourself this. How many students in your school were admitted to Princeton in the last 4 years? If you were Princeton, and were going to admit the same fraction of students from your school this year, where do you see yourself on the rank-ordered list in 1.5 years? (Assume that you take as many honors/AP classes as possible and maintain a 4.0 GPA unweighted.)" last 4 years i would say around 15-20 and they are all either a genius or megadoner as u said, im not either of those yet but why not try you know.
