<p>Hello, I wanted to be chanced for a few schools. So here goes:</p>

<ul>
<li>Competitive admission, highly-acclaimed math and science specialized high school (10-12 grade)</li>
<li>Asian male</li>
<li>School doesn't calculate GPA, but at least 3.9/4 (B's in undergrad courses, A in second semester of one of these courses --> dramatic improvement?; lots of undergrad-level courses, good teacher impressions)</li>
<li>SAT: (790 M, 740 CR, 800 W = 2350 superscore)</li>
<li>ECs:
Varsity Science Olympiad: 9-12 (tons of medals)
Environmental Club: 9-12 (Pres at old school 9th, leadership roles new school 10th, VP 11th, pres 12th)
Alternative Energy club: 9-12 (built biodiesel reactor, service projects etc)
Entrepreneurship Club: 10-12 (Board of Directors 12th)
Model UN (9-12, 2 best speaker awards)
Writer for Science Quarterly: 10-12 (11th External Affairs director, 12th section editor)
Speech Team: 10-12 (numerous awards, but not going to regionals/state until after admissions)
National Youth Policy Summit 11-12 years (in a 6-person delegation selected from a 40 person group - all math and science secondary specialty students - to present to the board of directors of a research group in Washington DC)
Participant in Youth Urban Planning Project with final proposal for entrepreneurial development
All-district orchestra for 11th and 12th: Viola
3 Engineering Internships at large universities: 2 papers published, 1 conf attended</li>
<li>SAT IIs: probably both 800s</li>
<li>APs: World History, Bio, Env Sci, US History, Macro and Micro, Phys C, BC Calc, Chem (all
5s)</li>
<li>Community service totalling 250-300 hrs</li>
<li>Business proposition for engineering device geared toward energy savings</li>
</ul>

<p>I'm really touting myself as the environmentally-savvy, entrepreneurially-minded engineer. </p>

<p>Chance me for these schools, please? I'll chance back.
- UPenn (Wharton, engineering, or combined program, ED)
- Stanford (similar deal)
- HYP
- Johns Hopkins
- MIT
- Columbia
- Boston University
- UC Berkeley
- Northwestern</p>

<p>Why do you say your SAT II’s are “probably 800’s”? If you applied ED to Penn you would know your scores by now.</p>

3

<p>I’m actually a junior, and have expected (and not unreasonable) accomplishments for senior year. Sorry, I forgot to write that in the original post.</p>

<p>I’m expecting Bio, Math II to be both 800, and potentially a third (which I will leave out for now).</p>

<ul>
<li>UPenn (Wharton, engineering, or combined program, ED) - high match</li>
<li>Stanford (similar deal) - low reach</li>
<li>HYP - reach</li>
<li>Johns Hopkins - high match</li>
<li>MIT - reach</li>
<li>Columbia - low reach/high match</li>
<li>Boston University - match</li>
<li>UC Berkeley - match</li>
<li>Northwestern - high match</li>
</ul>

<p>Only junior year, so see what you can do with that GPA (it’s veeery good, I just mean either keep it that way, or try and get it up) Junior year is the most important year, so just don’t lose focus, and you’re good!</p>

<p>Thanks for the help! Any further suggestions as far as ECs go? I have very specialized leadership, so…</p>

</ul>

<p>bump… 10 char</p>

<p>Your subscore adds up to 2330, not 2350, unless you mistyped a subscore. Anyways, a 20-point difference isn’t that big a deal, though, especially when you’re in the 2300s. I agree with the other posters on your chances. I hope to meet you at Wharton next year!!!</p>

9

<p>Your only a junior year? (Good thing on your part =P)
Just curios, did you take AP physics c, calc, bio, chem, all in freshmen and sophomore year?</p>

<p>@iBelieveSo</p>

<p>Yeah, I’m a junior. I have yet to take BC, Phys C, and chem this year (I already took bio and everything else). I’m finishing the full BC track (equivalent of BC III) this semester.</p>

<p>Any advice?</p>

<p>Thanks :)</p>
