<p>hi im a sophomore at a small christian private school in MA
and i have a couple questions..
my stats r:
korean</p>
<p>GPA: 3.95 UW/ 4.95 W
currently taking the most rigorous courses possible at my school
and i will have completed 6 ap courses by senior graduation
(our school is small and doesn't offer as much other larger private schools)</p>
<p>SAT/PSAT: on the psat's i didn't study for it at all cuz it was during exam period and i got a 195.. and march vacation i'll b taking sat prep so im hoping for 220ish.. on the SATs i havn't formally taken them yet but on math i get close to 800's and the writing section 710 and for the other section not too good.. around 650ish so im hoping to bump that up thru sat prep--my goal is to get around 2200</p>
<p>SAT II: i havn't taken them yet but i heard 3 is a good number so i'll prly take the subject tests on the subjects im the strongest at</p>
<p>ECs: this is the part i feel exceptionally weak at and prly need the most advice</p>
<p>at school: new england math league, concert band, varsity soccer, a community voluntary club (helping our world--we go on community service trips periodically), Biology T.A.</p>
<p>i also have played the piano for 8-9 years but i hate it idk why i keep doing it.. im definitely not a passionate music person</p>
<p>i do tennis outside of school but im not good enough to compete in tournaments..</p>
<p>i've gotten in 2nd place in the AMC 10 last year as a freshman at school</p>
<p>at church: i help out with vacation bible school, going on a missions trip this summer etc</p>
<p>also im trilingual--spanish english korean.. </p>
<p>this summer: im in the process of landing an internship at harvard research labs cuz someone i kno works there (bio field.. i also love bio), missions trip, possibly to germany (a 70-30 chance)</p>
<p>i always thought i was a math/science person but i started developing a love for languages and im starting to learn japanese and i possibly mite go over to germany this summer to start learning german and am planning to take latin.. </p>
<p>im trying to somehow connect my love for serving others with my language talents and that will prly b my theme for the rest of highschool</p>
<p>anyways so im really not sure what i might major in so i've been considering liberal arts colleges.. but then i want to get into a prestigious college as well b/c im the first child and.. i live in an asian family so my parents' expectations are really high even tho they seldom show it</p>
<p>i've been looking at amherst, williams, middlebury for liberal arts colleges and emory, uva, nyu, yale, brown, north western etc for my top choices
im kind of worried i mite b setting my goals too high but ithink if im deficient in some areas i can pull it up since im only a sophomore</p>
<p><em>edit</em> any other colleges i shud look into? sorry for the long post</p>
<p>thank you for the advice</p>
