<p>Your SATs look more than solid for the schools you are applying to, try to get 700+ in all your subject tests as well. I think your ECs are great/above average as well since I heard Model UN was a big thing in the east coast. Your main essay sounds great while your second one sounds a little trite, I’m sure thousands of asians have written (bullsh**) about their musical instruments. I think you have a very high chance of getting into Georgetown and your other schools.</p>

<p>Thanks! :slight_smile: For georgetown, the ukulele essay was actually one of my shorter ones… and the water scarcity essay was my second long essay.</p>

<p>Anyone else?</p>
