<p>I have just come to America a few months ago, as a junior, this is the first time that i'm learning in a english-based school!
I'm a Chinese, US perminant resident in CA.
My statistics: foreign grade: top 4 out of 70
my junior year first semester grade 4.6667(weighted) 4.0(unweighted)
i'm now taking, ap physics c, ap chemistry, ap calculus ab, ap us history(extremely hard for me), visual art, english one.
my sat score is :math 790, writing 660, reading 550
my sat 2 score is: math2 800, chemistry 800, physics 800, (do i need to take chinese, is that so pretentious for Chinese to take chinese sat2?)</p>

<p>i have so limited ECs, because in my former school, we have a school scheduel of 7:30 am to 9:40 pm, and went home every 2 weeks, so we have almost no chance to participate in any thing rather than classes.
i'm a national level 2 badminton athlete in china, 4 years training.
i'm one of the inventors of some inventional patents.
thanks for any respond!</p>

<p>3 SAT II's is enough, those school hours are insane, badminton! woot!</p>

<p>edit: wait... do you NEED a humanities SAT 2?</p>

<p>It doesn't have to be humanities. They told me I'd be fine with Math's I and IIc and Physics.</p>

<p>Altho ur verbal score is definitely explained by your circumstances, maybe u could consider taking the toefl? altho i think if u work hard, u can def raise it (i had low scores few years ago).</p>

<p>And yea I took the same sat2's as u, but also took korean and world history... i'd think it wouldn't hurt to take chinese if u can get a 800. :] Humanities would help (if u do well) for other colleges esp. </p>

<p>gl with ur ap's!</p>
