<p>I'm a mixed white-asian from the UK. I have 6 As at AS level (4As are normally considered equivalent to 4.0 GPA, but I self-taught two subjects) and an A* in maths A2, which I self-taught myself a year early. I have a 2200 SAT (760 CR, 760 maths, 680 writing) but I'm resitting it in december. I'm ranked in the top 2.7% of my year, which is one of the top 8 state schools in the UK.</p>

<p>In my spare time, I'm doing an honours level maths course with Britain's Open University and three edX courses. In total, this takes 38hrs per week. I have a 10hr per week part-time job. At school, I represent my house on the school council, have arranged and conducted a variety of musical performances, have experience in debating and public speaking, I am completing the Gold DofE award, I've led a team that is having a research project published in a national publication. By december, I will have sat exams in both piano and music theory of the highest national standard. I have completed the vInpsire Gold award for community service.</p>

<p>I'm thinking of applying to Ivies, Stanford and MIT. Any feedback on chances of admission or improvements would be welcome.</p>

<p>Many thanks</p>

<p>Your scores are excellent, but thats not what sets you apart from the competition. Your variety and depth of EC’s is what will make or break you and in your case, they make you. Make sure you put emphasis on them in anyway possible, including in your essays. </p>

<p>I think you should get into at least one of the ivies =). Best of luck to you!</p>
