<p>Crimes and extra info: I stole my friend's ruby ammy and rune two hander in runescape. then i forgot to put on "protect items" when i was dying and then i lost the r2h, so i was sad.</p>

<p>I love MIT and princeton, and wouldn't mind going to caltech either. Other schools I'm interested include:</p>

<p>Boston College
Columbia
Cornell
Carnegie Melon
Dartmouth
NYU Stern
Stanford
UC Berckley
UMich
UPenn</p>

<p>So what do you guys think of my chances? Please be harsh, and if possible, I would greatly appreciate any advice. I am scared I seem like a "study freak" on paper though, and that would be bad, especially since my grades are nowhere near "study freak" caliber. Anyone have any opinions, please tell!</p>

<p>That's wierd, I can't see the reply.</p>

<p>It's speeled UC Berkeley;)</p>

<p>amazing sat's</p>

<p>MIT is the perfect school for you.</p>

<p>Yeah, I think I would absolutely love the environment there. However, I hope that MIT will also think I am a good student for them. =)</p>

<p>MIT, Caltech, Princeton: REJECT.</p>

<p>Your crimincal record will force them to reject you.</p>

<p>I took organic chem and visualization in chemistry.</p>

<p>foolonthehill161:</p>

<p>UCB: Match (out of state)</p>

<p>You're good at all these schools, obviously. The AI is 233, if anyone cares;--I don't, since from what I can tell, the only reason for the post was to let us know that the op plays runescape.</p>

<p>MIT - reach
Princeton - reach
Caltech - slight reach</p>

<p>Boston College - safety
Columbia - reach
Cornell - match
Carnegie Melon - safety (match for CS)
Dartmouth - slight reach
NYU Stern - match
Stanford - reach
UC Berkeley - match OOS
UMich - safety OOS
UPenn - slight reach</p>

<p>your criminal record will forever haunt your admissions! :)</p>

<p>almost perfect your criminal record........</p>

<p>You should definitely apply for MIT; you chance is not bad. However, keep in mind that MANY MIT applicants have similar accomplishments like you, and some of them have even better resume! Good luck!</p>
