<p>I was very aware of SAT forums of college confidential for a year and was very active member. I just found out about this summer program forum and feel..debilitated. I did not do anything for past 2summers but tutor bunch of kids. Now I want to apply but I am soo overwhelmed by all these different summer programs. </p>
<p>But I've noticed MITES and SSP would be my top choices. Can you guys still tell me what other programs that I can be qualified for and which ones I can try?

<p>Which summer program would fit me best? and which one do I have chance for and which would be a reach? Thank you</p>
<p>My stats were not as impressive as yours. I applied to YESS, SSP and MITES. I got into the YESS program and got waitlisted for SSP. I think your chances for SSP are good, idk about MITES though. And I’d reccomend YESS as well if you are a minority student, and even if you are not it may be worth a try.</p>
<p>YESS is the Young Engineering and Science Scholars summer program at Caltech.
As far as stats go, I’d classify your SAT scores, rank and Gpa as really good. I think your EC’s seem a bit limited though since they are in only one area, but then again that could work for you by showing just how interested you are in those areas.</p>
<p>You can apply to several, I applied to three, other people applied to even more. It’s really up to you, and how many applications you have time for</p>
