Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hello everyone.
I have begun college prep since March, so I am curious what others think of my academics and others. One thing about me is that I am attending a boarding school in US, but I am an international student from Korea.</p>

<p>SAT
Reasoning: 700 CR/ 770 M/ 770 W (1470 / 2240)
Subject:
Math Level 2: 800
Chemistry: Will take in May 2010, but I am taking AP chem now, so I think I will get at least 750.
Biology/ World History: In October 2010</p>

<p>GPA: Our school is very rigorous with GPA.</p>

<p>9th: 3.6 UW/ 3.8 W (Eng,His,Precal H, Chinese I)
10th: 3.86 UW/ 4.41 W (Eng H, His H, AP Calculus AB, Chinese II H)
11th (so far): 3.94 UW/ 4.49 W (Eng, Euro His AP, Statistics AP, Chem AP, Chinese III H)</p>

<p>APs:
10th: AP Calculus AB 5
11th: AP Euro History, AP Stats, AP Chem
12th: AP US History, AP English Language, AP Calculus BC, AP Physics B</p>

<p>Internship in one German company and in a biochemistry department of a National University in Korea. Next summer before college application starts, I am going back to the biochem department and do experiment. My name will be on a thesis with other lab partners in an experiment that biochemistry department will publish.</p>

<p>Activities:
Student Council (Since grade school. Currently VP at school), School Prefect, School Singing Choirs, and the School Newspaper, Boy Band and African Drum Drummer, Golden Key Club, Tutoring.
JV soccer captain, and one yr of Varsity wrestling and placing 7th in the state is all athletics for me.</p>

<p>I am planning to apply...</p>

U Michigan (Rolling)
Notre Dame (EA)
UNC (EA)
U Chicago (EA)</p>

<p>Cornell
Northwestern
NYU Stern

<p>If you chance me and need someone to chance you, I will make sure I do.</p>

<p>Thanks a lot.</p>

<p>This is harder for me, I don’t know what the standards are for internatonal students. Your academic stats are great, although you probably want to raise your scores, and your EC’s are strong (it’s good to see you have some leadership experience). The internships with the German company and in the Korean biochemistry department are really impressive, I’ve never seen job expercience this extensive on anyone’s bio. </p>

<p>Penn (ED) - low reach
U Michigan (Rolling) - low match
Notre Dame (EA) - low match
UNC (EA) - match (it’s very hard to get in if you’re not from NC, but you have a really strong application)
U Chicago (EA) - match</p>

<p>Cornell - low reach
Northwestern - low match
NYU Stern - low match
Duke - match
Harvard -reach
Columbia - lower reach
Georgetown - match
Brown - lower reach
Boston University - low match
Emory - match</p>

<p>I actually am attending a school in NC. I don’t know if that helps, but I will attend that school for four years by the time I apply to UNC and DUKE! :)</p>

<p>Hmmm your stats are improving, and ur SAT is pretty good. I think that your EC’s will help you a lot for these colleges. Just write a solid college essay, and you should be set for all colleges up to “low reach.”</p>

<p>your grade and SAT score are both pretty good. i think it helps that your an international student because that makes you a bit different… but you’re korean and that’s not too special ethnicity-wise lol. (i’m asian too)
you’re EC’s are pretty good too. lots of leadership, decent athletics, and the obvious focus in biochem will help you too. try to do competitions or other stuff in that field too</p>

<p>Penn (ED) - high match

<p>Your an international, so my chances might not be spot on (Each uni treats intl’s differently) however, here’s are my thoughts:

  • Decent SAT
  • Good AP Scores
  • Great EC involvement
  • GPA W is awesome, UW is a little speckled</p>

<p>Cornell Low Reach
Northwestern Reach
NYU Stern Match/In
Duke Match
Harvard Too picky to tell
Columbia Reach
Georgetown High Match
Brown Low Reach
Boston University Match/In
Emory Match</p>
