<p>Wow, that's really impressive. Are you sure you'll be able to achieve a few of those stats (e.g. new SAT score) by next year? also, isn't National Honor Roll a scam? other than that, kudos!</p>

3

<p>I think national honor roll is a scam...and I think he already scored 2330 SAT...thats the way it seems at least. Anyway, you have fairly good chances at any of those, espescially with Boy Scouts and water polo</p>

4

<p>haha you cant already score 2330, till april 11.
reading your stats makes me sad. go away =(</p>

5

<p>Wasn't your old SN kenli792 or something like that? You already posted your stats before and got feedback, why would you do it again under a new SN?</p>

<p>I spend way too much time on this board...</p>

6

<p>i dont get why people post these stats to make others feel bad. awesome stats. makes mine look like a joke.</p>

7

<p>Yeah, how the heck do you know your score already? Or is that some type of "expected" score?</p>

<p>And these stats do look familiar.</p>

8

<p>I based it on my PSAT, my practice tests, and my "SAT Prep Program" offered at my hs...</p>

9

<p>dude, weren't u accepted to RSI. Add that, that's huge.</p>

10

<p>whats RSI?</p>

<p>lol you posted twice?? just to make sure everyone felt bad about themselves.. haha</p>

11

<p>Thing is, I'm not sure I can even go to RSI...</p>

12

<p>wha? GO!!! i feel bad that i didn't apply b/c RSI really helps in college admissions! there is no reason why u can't go... make it ur summer, go have fun, learn and on top of that, a few big packages around this time next year. Sounds so nice!</p>

13

<p>the kids who go to RSI aren't all that concerned about college admissions as much as they want the experience...at least I hope not...sighh....</p>

<p>hp08 - No one can give you accurate chances at HYPS. You'll most likely get into 5 or 6 of the ones you listed...</p>
