<p>Well, if those are really your stats, then I'm sure you know you have a chance at just about any college, including some of the top Ivies.</p>

<p>I'm not saying I don't believe you, but I really am amazed by the number of people on this message board claiming to have such incredible profiles. Such profiles and normally extremely extremely rare.</p>

<p>I know what you're talking about. But, yes those are really my stats and I've lots of people with those (whether true or false).</p>

<p>Where do these people find time for a life? </p>

<p>Don't get me wrong, I'm quite the little overacheiver myself...but I think that if my senior year had looked like lots of the lists on here, I would have exploded. KABOOM.</p>
