<p>Barring something ridiculous like a criminal record or multiple suspensions, you're probably in everywhere. That SAT + URM status will carry you into any college you want to go to.</p>

<p>And you're a junior? Is that right?</p>

3

<p>No I'm a senior gotta edit that. Thanks for the reply, I'd be willing to chance you.</p>

<p>Ok I see. The only thing that could possibly bring you down is your GPA (what is your class rank?) and this is partially nullified by the fact that you are from an excellent high school. I still think your near-perfect SATs will carry you through though.</p>

<p>Jian Li? Is he that guy who was whining about being rejected by nearly every top university but Yale?</p>

<p>This is my stuff:
