<p>Extra Curricular</p>

<p>School ECs: President of Student, Volunteer Commitee, Editor of School paper, Model UN (in New York) best delegate for Environmental Program, Head of Student Council (organizing all school events), volunteered to build a school in Kenya.</p>

<p>Outside School: Currently in the process of publishing a novel on family experiences and how they relate to all Americans ability to make change in the world. I talked about my Father and mother coming from Kenya to U.S. and his experiences with only 20$ to their names in moving. I also explained why I value education because my father and mother had to decide who would study at the higher education level, since there was little money for both to attend university, after my mother's father left her as a child.</p>

<p>I also explained my Experiences dealing with mother passing away from cancer and grandmothers death shorty after. In my essay, I wrote about her story and how she had to raise my mother and her sister alone, and how I am inspired by her example of strength.</p>

<p>To conclude the book, I explained the second part of the novel: why I wrote the book and how it applies to all the potential readers. I wanted to give back to the land where my parents were born in a way to thank my mother, grandfather, and father for their persistence on my behalf. I have already begun to raise funds for an annual project to build schools in Kenya, but I want to take it further with the book. In short, I wanted to share my experiences with other youth in the US and begin something far greater than my own experience.</p>

<p>Anyways, thanks for reading (if you got through all of it lol). I was wondering what my chances were at a Harvard acceptance?</p>

<p>Harvard is a reach for everyone but you look in great shape!</p>

<p>2400 on sats. kenyan minority (and first in your family to go to college/american college?). author. great aps and grades. being black is huge t00- i think you’re in sir. congrats, you should be really proud in all ur accomplishments</p>

<p>A valedictorian author with a 2400? Good shot. A black one? Guaranteed entrance. I’d say you have a 95% chance of getting into Harvard.</p>

<p>You are most likely in at any school you apply to, except maybe Caltech. One thing that might raise a few eyebrows is that you dropped French after sophomore year. But being a URM with perfect SATs alone will have colleges going after you.</p>

<p>is this a joke?
you have stellar grades, a perfect sat score, amazing ECs (you’re publishing a book!!)
yes harvard is obviously very selective, but i think you know that you have a really good chance…</p>

<p>I think you are in HYP, and that is the first time I have said that to anyone lol</p>

<p>Surely you can find out by a couple minutes of browsing that you have amazing chances. I have never seen an applicant with as good of chances as you have. </p>

<ul>
<li> You’re Valedictorian of your high school.</li>
<li> You’re African American.<br></li>
<li> You have 5’s in ten APs and self-studied five of them.</li>
<li> Your ECs are probably in the top 5 percent for applicants to HYP</li>
<li> You scored 99th percentile on Math 1, 98th percentile on Biology, and 98th percentile on U.S. History</li>
<li> You scored a perfect on all sections of the SAT, which is the 99.98 percentile. First African American applicant with a 2400 on CC I’ve seen.</li>
</ul>

<p>I assume your essays will be good, considering you may be published.</p>

<p>There is no reason you would get rejected. Your application can’t get much better. Harvard is not a reach for you as bartnawer mislead you to believe.</p>

<p>Wow, I think we’ve found our super-applicant…NOTHING is wrong with you, you’re perfect in almost every way (you dropped French). You’re Black, val, perfect scorer on SAT I, 10 AP’s. Jesus, this is where I agree with Affirmative Action and I’m Asian, you deserve Harvard, Yale, and Princeton more than I do.</p>

<p>what are you doing making everyone on CC feel jealous?!?! Go to Harvard, Yale, and Princeton already! Jeez, your question is SO obvious.</p>

<p>■■■■■. ■■■■■. ■■■■■.</p>

<p>I nominate lobster as the super-applicant!</p>

<p>I second that motion.</p>
