<p>This summer I worked at a chinese school and taught 1st graders english and math. I worked about 20 hours a week and I'm going back 2nd semester because I love the kids (and I need the money, haha).</p>

<p>I also recently coordinated a visit from meebo (the online IM site?) to come to speak to students at my high school about how to start a successful start-up and different aspects of business -marketing ,advertising, etc. It's kind of like my project for FBLA. </p>

<p>Teacher recs: very strong. 1 from ap physics teacher who says I'm her best student (she's known me for 2 years) 1 from my ap stats teacher who is also the advisor for FBLA
Counserlor rec: strong. she knows me personally and really likes me</p>

<p>Um...I don't know what else there is to say? haha. </p>

<p>(I'm just randomly trying for Stanford and MIT and hoping I get lucky. I know my chances there are slim, haha)</p>

<p>Thank you to anyone who reads this!
I have 2 weeks to do all 4 apps for these schools, since I was praying so hard for Wharton
:(</p>

<p>I'd say you have a good shot at NYU. "Match" sounds like you'll get in for sure, so I won't say that.</p>

<p>And Brown, Stanford, and MIT are reaches, as I'm sure you'd expect.</p>

3

<p>I think that you have a great shot of getting in. Your credentials are impressive and your SAT scores are also high. Good luck and I wish you success</p>

4

<p>You look good for Stern.</p>

5

<p>Thanks everyone!
I'm also applying to UC Berkeley and I reallyreallyreally hope I get in there haha. :/</p>

6

<p>Bumpppp</p>

<p>Do you think I have a chance at Brown RD?</p>

7

<p>I'd say you are fine for Stern. I think you have better shot for Brown, Stanford, and MIT than you think. I'd think Brown is the best possibility, then MIT.</p>
