<p>You have great eveything. Now your chance is like a straw being picked out randomly in a cup full of straws–mostly everyone who applies to these have similar stats as you.</p>

3

<p>You certainly have the scores and the GPA, but a lot of these schools will be reaches as you’re in an extremely competitive pool of applicants (ORM/CA).
Some interesting accomplishments on the ECs (3k for charity/internship) but besides that the rest seems a bit generic. 150 hours of volunteering is not considered a lot for top schools. </p>

<p>It really comes down to the essays, so make sure you stand out.</p>

<p>CR score is below median at all ivies except a few schools at Cornell. ECs also don’t sat ivy. The competition among Asians from CA is fierce.</p>

<p>Don’t see HYPSMW.</p>

<p>For others raise CR and SATlls (unless you’ve studied Korean as opposed to it being a native language) and try for better positioning of activities.</p>

<p>Thank you to everyone who replied.</p>

<p>Any more chances? Thanks!</p>

<p>Yeah, everything you have is solid! The only thing I would worry about is your extracurriculars aren’t SUPER eye catching, but they are pretty good. Your test scores and GPA is good though, so you have that for you. I’d say you have a good chance at every school.</p>

<p>Honestly, I think you have a great chance at all of those schools. As others have said, the only thing that hurts you is being an ORM from CA, but you have just as much of a chance as others in that pool.</p>
