2 years varsity football. team lost in state championship game last year.. might look to play at some D1-AA or D3 schools because i do love the sport
i also was on JV wrestling and freshmen lacrosse my freshmen year, but because i tore my ACL my sophomore year, i was unable to continue those 2 sports
4 years math club- this year i'm president
USA Math Olympiad qualifyer (500 students nationwide.. about 100 from class of 2009)
won Harvard MIT Math tournament general round in 2006
I have alot of other achievements in math competitions and such, and i'm looking to become a math major in college.
I teach a math competition class at the chinese school each sunday( this is my volunteer work- its been about 100+ hours through high school)</p>
<p>this year i am enrolled in:
Multivariable Calculus honors
AP government
Physics honors
LA honors
French
sports medicine
gym/health
and study hall (my school allows me to have 8 courses per year and 2 are mandatory= study hall and gym/health)</p>
<p>I am interested in applying to
Harvard
Princeton(second top choice)
Yale
Columbia
Cornell
Dartmouth
UPenn
MIT(top choice, but i cant apply early here because i have no green card/citizenship)
Stanford(got my early app pretty much done)
Rutgers(safety. i live right next to princeton & 1/3 of my school goes to rutgers each year)
Duke
NYU
UC Berkeley
Caltech
also i'm considering middlebury and williams because my mother is single and i live with her. i would qualify for need base scholarships because of her income, but i think i am considered an international student, since i'm living here on a visa.
what do you guys think?
also does anyone have any suggestions for me?
any help would be much appreciated :)</p>
<p>btw i am also hoping my success in math competitions can help me with colleges like Harvard, MIT, Princeton and such because they are front runners in the Putnam competition and i would be a pretty good candidate for that math competition in college</p>
