<p>I am applying to:
H Y P S , Cornell (my brother is attending now), Columbia, UPenn, Brown, Amherst, Williams</p>
<p>intended major: international relations / Poli sci</p>
<p>Am I just looking up too high?
HELLLLPPPP MEEEEE</p>
<p>did you get in CMO?
provincial plaque/medal for COMC?
did you take Euclid?</p>
<p>fryer/galois/hypatia?</p>
<p>Ill be taking Euclid next Feb.
and I got a school champion medal from COMC, but not provincial.
our school does not recommend ppl to fryer/galois/hypatia contests.</p>
<p>from what your applying to, it seems your more liberal arts? and if so, why is your Math SAT score higher than your Critical reading and writing?</p>
<p>oh yeah, and I'd say you have a fairly good chance, meaning you are... competitive, I think. However, I'm not an admissions guy or whatever. I'm not even in gr.12 yet. I just based this on what others have said on others' chance threads.</p>
<p>oh yeah, and the book/website thing seems really impressive.</p>
<p>Thanks u§ername
i really appreciate ur comment. </p>
<p>anyone else?</p>
<p>I'd say</p>
<p>5% chance at HYPS
85% chance at cornell
40% at Columbia and UPenn
70% chance at Brown
90% chance at Amherst and Williams</p>
<p>coolness..... Cornell and HYPS has that big a difference? are you sure?</p>
<p>oh yeah.... sunni u play piano right? (lead pianist) so you surely have RCME certificates? put those down too. makes you look that little bit more impressive</p>
<p>Coolness might be a little off. You should have a slightly higher chance at HYPS. </p>
<p>Overall, your EC's are really good, mainly due to the fact you PUBLISHED a book. That is very impressive, despite your other EC's aren't that big. I'm SURE you'll get in at least 4 of your choice schools or even more. Publishing a book is VERY interesting and extremely unique.</p>
<p>i do have rcm certificates. I forgot about those. thanks username.
Thanks coolness and Elite for ur opinion.
It really helps a lot to hear others' thoughts on my outlook</p>
<p>Now i think I just gotta concentrate on getting the apps finished completely.
Procrastination sure doesnt get u that far..</p>
<p>Coolness is way off.</p>
<p>Harvard: 30%
Yale: 35%
Princeton: 35%
Stanford: 35%
Cornell: 70%
Columbia:50%
Penn: 55%
Brown: 55%
Amherst: 55%
Williams: 55%</p>
<p>I would add Dartmouth if you like Princeton, Brown, and AW. Its pretty much a combination of all of these and tends to be friendly to internationals. My bet is you get into one or more of these but you never know</p>
<p>thanks slipper!
I was wondering about Dartmouth too
I will look into that. Thank you</p>
