<p>I'm really anxious about getting my admissions/rejections. I live in Athens, Georgia. (but not a fan of UGA)</p>
<p>Asian (oriental) male <- sucks :( but please don't tell me anything I don't already know</p>
<p>I applied to: Georgia Tech, Vanderbilt, Emory, U Chicago, Dartmouth, NYU, UNC Chapel Hill, Stanford
(I know, a LOT)
Stats:</p>
<p>SAT: 2320 (this is my super score and highest single time)</p>
<p>SAT Subject Tests:
US History- 780
Math II-800</p>
<p>GPA: 3.89 (weighted- my school only does a weighted GPA)</p>
<p>I'm unsure about my rank but it's in the top 5% for sure. (probably much higher)</p>

<p>I took the most rigorous courses I could so hopefully that puts me at a competitive advantage? Do colleges even care about AP scores? Hopefully that will help me out.

<p>EC's---------</p>
<p>-President of National Honor Society</p>
<p>-Play in a summer tennis league every summer, </p>
<p>-volunteered at a senior center for about 150 hours over the past 2 summers,</p>
<p>-I forget how many but many hours from National Honor Society. </p>
<p>-Mu Alpha Theta 4 years, </p>
<p>-Science Olympiad 4 years. Medal-ed at the state level in Science Olympiad for 3 years (but my team never makes it to national :(. )</p>
<p>-National AP scholar at the end of junior year.</p>
<p>I'm sure my letters of recommendation were really good as they were from the volunteer coordinator at the senior center I volunteered at and one was from my Science Olympiad coach.</p>
<p>Should I have applied where I applied? Or should I have applied to some other places? I stayed away from HYSPM (other than Stanford) because a friend of mine last year had similar stats and was rejected. (I have better scores/she had a better GPA) Should I have?</p>
