<p>Stern WOULD be a match, but you said you were top 15%… that moves it up to a Low Reach, but definitely still in reach. Steinhardt and Carroll are still matches for you.</p>
<p>Just a heads up: I noticed you said you took the Korean with Listening test and knocked it out of the park. If you’re Asian, but NOT Korean, then it looks awesome, but if you’re Korean, I’d actually leave it off of your application. </p>
<p>Trust me on this one: Asians, as you know, are overrepresented in college. Don’t take what I’m about to say offensively, because I don’t mean it as such in any way, but you want your application to make the admission officer forget that you’re Asian. Adding a Subject Test that flourishes the fact that you’re Asian only serves to remind the admission officer that you’re just “another” Asian.</p>
<p>By the way, if you did take anything I just offensively, I do apologize profusely, but I don’t know any other delicate way to say it. If it helps, my girlfriend’s Korean. You’re the best!</p>
<p>Thanks for your advice! Yeah, i am korean and alot of people have told me to leave it out in my application… And dont worry, i didnt take it offensively. Haha</p>
