<p>Hello friends! Feel free to give any advice.</p>

<p>I am a Chinese student, a non-US citizen who has been studying in a small private Catholic high school in NY.
Lacking in English, still practicing though.
Interested in majoring math; Maybe pure or applied math in undergrad, then figure out what I am gonna do I beyond that point.(maybe finance, accounting, banking fields, really have no ideas now)</p>

<p>TOEFL: not taken yet, maybe ~108(hopefully)
SAT I 1770 (Reading 540, Math 740, Writing 490) will probably get to ~2200(hopefully, weak in verbal section)
SAT II planning to take Math 2 and Physics, maybe World History
Grades: 94 of Sophomore year, 98 first 2 quarters of junior year
Classes:AP Physics B exam with a score of 4 last year;currently AP Biology, AP US History and going to take AP Clac AB exam; planning to take AP Language&Composition, AP Micro/Macro Economics, AP Chemistry, AP Calc BC. I have also taken some other major honor classes
NY state regents exam: I should be able to get an advance diploma with honors, but I don't know how this can help me?</p>

<p>Extracurricular:
National Honor Society
Math clubs
Model United Nations
Franciscan Youth Ministries(A service program, we usually help out at local churches)
Student Representative of Middle States Re-Accreditation Committee
Male Choir and Advanced Chorus performing in concerts around the area.
Playing in the school Musical
Varsity Track& Field, Wrestling, Cross Country, Swimming</p>

<p>Awards:
Only some academic awards distributed by the school, no major math related awards. </p>

<p>In addition, I am applying for some Summer program and summer camp on math? I m considering brown, cornell, SuMaC, etc(still undecided yet). Since I don't have many EC related to math, this may help me a bit when I apply</p>

<p>Thanks a lot, really appreciate it:)</p>

<p>Everything is a reach except maybe URochester. Since you are still a junior, you have a chance to improve on your application. Get more leadership roles and improve on your SAT or TOEFL. Good luck. </p>

<p>@sloth83 thank you.(chanced you back) Are you chancing me base on my current SAT score or prospective one(~2200), btw I think I have a 1900-2000 right now, still practicing every day.</p>

<p>I agree with the others, your current test scores are verryyyyyy low for your target schools, esp. UofC, Stanford, etc. If you can bring your SAT to 2200+, get 740+ on SAT IIs, you have a much better shot. That being said though, your ECs are not that great, or at least not enough to counterbalance your weak scores. You have a ton of sports, but unless you’re really good (like D1 good), it doesn’t mean THAT much. For now, I think the best you can do is really work hard on getting those test scores. Good luck!</p>

<p>Help me out?
