good test scores and courseload/GPA.

i doubt ECs will hurt you since if anything you show you really care about skating, which is better than not caring about but being in a bunch of school clubs (like I do lol).

awards look good, no need to worry

WUSTL and Cal application will be affected similarly to ivy lotto, but nothing anyone can do about that

all others seem very likely. gl

You have a good chance at everything besides UCB, UCLA, and WUSTL, which are reaches. Your EC is good–it shows focus. Chance back?: http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1778302-chance-an-asian-yale-duke-williams.html#latest

You have really good stats and your ECs are very interesting. I think a lot of it has to do with what you plan on studying, though, because your ECs show such focus; if the field of study is entirely unrelated, the specificity in your ECs may not be great. If they are unrelated, definitely talk about what makes you love skating and connect it to the field in your essay, and then you should be golden. I’d say all are matches, except for Berkeley, UMich , and UCLA, which are low-medium reaches. Good luck with everything!
