<p>About 10 seconds of Google were enough to find you. Amazing achievements, I don’t think you’ll have too much trouble. I think if you added any other EC’s just for the sake of being more diverse it’d just look like padding. If you find something you love, like say, an instrument or another sport, then by all means do it, but I don’t think you need it too much because it seems like you are passionate about what you do and that’s a lot more important than quantity.</p>
<p>…but if I were you I’d refrain from posting so much information, it’s too easy to identify you. And googling any of your achievements returns this thread, so any admissions officers who did a google search would find your account here. I don’t think they’d care, though, I’d be more concerned about random strangers being able to find your identity.</p>
<p>Maybe he’s real, maybe he’s fake. Either way, it these stats and awards are real, why on earth would you need confirmation of your chances from random high school students over the internet? Surely you could talk to someone at Harvey Mudd (a highly respected school) or have a discussion with your parents or something. Do you honestly believe someone with multiple international awards, research in their respective field, and a 4.0 UW doesn’t have great chances at any school?.. Seems like a ■■■■■ to me, but you sure have put in a lot of time responding to every comment. </p>
<p>@PurePhysics I just want to know one thing. Assuming you are real and accomplished all of these amazing things, what do you expect to gain from this thread. You know you have as good of a chance as anyone. Are you doing to for self validation or what?</p>
<p>@ooohcollege well, some people need validation from others… Trust me, there are people at my school who are EXTREMELY qualified, and, yet, they had qualms about being able to get accepted into UCLA or UCSD… They didn’t have a clue about their opportunities before I told them to talk to their counselors…</p>
<p>@StanfordWOW it seems to me that the kids who need this validation are the ones who spent their high school years studying away or finding some way to improve their application. They never got to truly enjoy their high school years and now seek to affirm their commitment to their studies by seeing if random people on the internet will swoon over their accomplishments. If you genuinely want to know what your chances are at a university (assuming your grades are not perfect scores where asking people will be no help to you), this is the place to do it on the internet. Yet if your grades are perfect, there is nothing to be gained from posing this question.</p>
<p>I read the forum and quickly realized I knew the guy. He attends my high school in Southern California. I do not want to give away his last name for privacy reasons but his first name is Jared. He is a topic of conversation amongst the intellectual studs on my high school campus… This is why I have heard of him. I validate everything he has posted. And to be quite honest, whoever criticized him for thinking he posted false information should be ashamed of themselves. If anything, I will go as far and say that you should feel honored to provide answers to questions to high school students as advance as him, not criticize him because your “gut feeling” tells you his accomplishments were made up.</p>
<p>I think the reason some might think
Your a ■■■■■. ( myself included) is that in March of 2013 you claimed to be a senior and asked to he chanced for Ivy League. You gave grades as well as ap scores and sat scores. Not projected - actual scores. You also added that you were a 4 year varsity starter and all state your senior year in Baseball. Amazing considering your currently a sophomore. </p>
<p>So while many of your accomplishments may be true it’s hard to believe someone that has shown the ability to be so creative in fabricating a profile. </p>
