<p>Tufts stats:
76% out of state
27% accepted out of 14,308
V 610-710
M 640-720</p>
<p>Top 10% of class -- 72%</p>
<p>Major: Mechanical Engineering</p>
<p>Immigrant from Southeastern Europe. Lived in the States for 4.5 yrs.
White Male</p>
<p>SAT I
1st time -- 680M 570V
2nd time -- 680M 690V
January retake, SHOULD (keyword should) be able to break 700M, expecting less than 690 on January retake V</p>
<p>I feel way smarter than a 680 in math and probably do not deserve the 690 in verbal that I got, but I am not complaining. Probably some sort of a unexplicable phenomena, like why do they ALWAYS land on the peanut butter side.</p>
<p>SAT IIs:
Math IIC: 740 (started shaking when the test started) retaking in December)
Physics: Should get a 700+ (keyword: should)
Writing: I consider myself a pretty good writer, should be able by some miracle too pull off a 620+</p>

Class rank: 14/(284(?))
Been a little lazy in high school.</p>

<p>Out-of-school:
Co-founded a small NP organization (IRS 501(c)3 tax-exempt status pending)
Worked as a cashier since 10th grade, about 20-25 hrs/week
Ran friend's store (managed personnel, expenses, kept track of cash and alike) for 2 weeks</p>
<p>Currently weighing the essay topic between being shown as a strong leader with ingenuity or describe difficulties in moving from Europe to here</p>
<p>Recs should be good/great.</p>
<p>Any tips on what to put into the app, for the interview, the essays?</p>
<p>Is it pointless to include the honor roll crap?</p>
<p>Thank you.</p>
