<p>Hi All,
I'm a junior who is considering where to apply early next year right now. I'd very much like to attend Harvard, Yale, Princeton or MIT, but I don't know just how realistic that is. Here are my stats:
Scores:
36 ACT (36 on all sections besides a 35 on science, and a 12 on writing. Only took it one time)
800 Physics SAT II
800 Biology-E SAT II
790 Math 2 SAT II
The AP's that I've taken are:
World-5
Biology-5
Physics C Mechanics- pending
Physics C E&M- pending
US- pending
Stats- pending
Calc BC- pending
I'll be a bit arrogant and say that I probably got a 5 on all of those pending scores besides US, which I may have gotten a 4 on.
I don't know how much GPA means as you all don't attend my school, but I have a 4.4 weighted GPA which puts me at probably 10th or 11th in a class of over 350 people.</p>
<p>Extra Curriculars and awards:
-Student in the highly selective Columbia Science Honors Program
-I was on my schools Varsity swim team freshman and sophomore years, and I was on the Varsity crew team sophomore year.
-Junior year I quit both sports because I acted in the school drama (I had a lead part) and I played drums for the school musical. I am one of the drum majors for our school marching band, and I play drums for our school jazz band. I am also a percussionist for a local non-profit concert band comprised of mostly professional musicians.

<p>I am an upper class Asian male, if that plays at all into whether you think I would get in. Thanks, your input is really appreciated, and if you chance me, I'd be happy to chance you back!</p>
