<p>what are my chances? especially if i ED in some schools?</p>

<p>but the thing is i moved from one country to another (USA between Korea) so many times in my life that i never had a lot of time to fully develop something in one place
a lot of my awards are the ones i got in Korea
do you think those will count?
btw im thinking of doing ED in UPenn. i might get in here maybe?</p>

<p>but the thing is, i dont think you can write about what've accomplished before h.s. but stat wise, i think you've got a shot.</p>

<p>yea does anyone think my awards in korea count in the admissions process?
it's just that i have lived there for quite awhile</p>

<p>Why do you keep making new threads, why not just bump your old ones?</p>

<p>hey im new to this so sry:)
but plz i just need some honest, realistic answers, that's all im asking for</p>

<p>bump thread</p>

<p>bumping thread</p>

<p>you are an AP scholar with honor.</p>

<p>bump this thread</p>

<p>bumping this thread</p>

<p>When your question is identical, it is usually best to only have one thread going at a time. Pick one and let the other drop.</p>

<p>i saw '1st generation asian american' and i guessed '2200+ SAT, 30+ ACT, 3.8+ GPA'</p>

<p>i am so right</p>

<p>Put your ECs in common app format. You can't put 27 things down, and my impression depends on which 7 things you put down. Then I can chance you.</p>

<p>alright i'll reformat my EC's
but guys are my sat 1 and sat 2 scores good enough?</p>

<p>bumping this thread
by the way in college i will probably do pre-med courses
considering this, is my 700 in sat chemistry too low?
also, Upenn recommends applicants to the college of arts and sciences take a foreign language sat 2, which i didn't
since it's recommended, do i really have to take one?</p>

<p>bumping thread</p>

<p>I see no reason to retake your SATs, even the Ivy's don't make <em>much</em> distinction beyond the 2200 range. </p>

<p>They "recommend" an SAT II Language, not require.</p>

<p>Your SAT II Chemistry score is a little low, yes. You might want to retake, if you really think you could do better [like 750+; SAT II's tend to be more competitive because people can choose their stronger subjects].</p>

<p>STOP bumping both threads. Pick one and let the other one die.</p>

<p>if i do not get above 750 in chem will that hurt me in the admissions process</p>

<p>bumping this thread again</p>

<p>bumping this again
by the way is princeton review practice tests for sat II chemistry accurate to the real test?</p>
