<p>Ehh, being Google-able doesn’t really matter to me too much; I have nothing to hide. Collaboration is a part of my essence. </p>
<p>Bump Bump, if anyone wants to comment on RSI chances too</p>
<p>I am surprised you never went to Ross Mathematics Summer Program. You would have loved it. Maybe you didn’t want to take the time out to play. Why would you not get into RSI? I am not sure why they would not accept you. </p>
<p>You may wish to take the ACT, just to close that little hole, but I really think the standardized scores are superfluous- they are used to normalize high schools to be sure the high-GPA student really can do the work at the level required. I suspect the schools may have other indicators they can rely on by looking at your published works and awards.</p>
<p>In fact, you may be better served sitting the GRE and approaching schools to directly enter their graduate departments. It may be an easier life, from the perspective of bureaucracy. You have already proven you can be a contributor, and if you came from the British system, you would not have any GenEd at the end of your undergraduate degree- just deep math, which you have from Harvey Mudd, UCI, and especially UCR.</p>
<p>Figure out what you want to do and approach schools to help you to achieve that; don’t try to fit into their cookie cutter when there is no reason to do so.</p>
<p>If I were your parent, I would be encouraging you to also look at going up the road to Berkeley (which may be a better program for you than Stanford) or UCLA, as well as looking at Harvard, MIT, and Princeton. And going direct into the graduate program at one of those schools.</p>
<p>Also, you can play as a grad student- all that matters is number of years of eligibility you have already burned through. There is the added advantage that you maybe could get a fellowship (or RA) to pay for school regardless of need. The downside is you are probably giving up the chance to compete for a prestigious Rhodes or Marshall if you go direct to grad school-maybe not. Worth exploring?</p>
<p>GPA. Check.</p>
<p>There is no hole. 33+ ACT (2180+ SAT) is to get your foot in the door. Check. </p>
<p>Your ECs are mindbogglingly good, so you’ve done what it takes. You only need above a 33, or 2180 SAT, if you are lacking in GPA or ECs, both of which are good, but the ECS are truly awesome. </p>
Are you human?
@JadeAriane Martian, actually 
To anyone else, I suppose I can add RSI to the list of EC’s, as I was just offered a spot this past weekend.
I don’t understand the point of his thread at all… Its obviously a stellar profile and I dont see the need for validation… You, me, and everyone else here knows your stats are stellar…
This thread is similar to a “I have a 2400, 20 AP classes, and a 4.0. Can I get into community college?”
You have a lack of bredth but at the point you are in math no one cares… you made it into RSI(3% ish acceptance rate) and IIRC there is like a 50% acceptance rate for Rickoids at HYPSM…
IF you need to rub your sausage more, I’m sure there are places that you can do it…

a part of me agrees.
I know people who’ve got into ivies full scholarship with less, you’ll be fine.
@brendauo101 The ivies don’t even offer merit money… what are you talking about?
Not really sure why you would post a chance thread if you actually had coaches call you. Seems like that may be exaggeration, but if true, you’re in. No doubt, likely letter will come soon if you commit.
