<p>Wow, just wow. No offense, but did you have a life in high school? You seem like too much of the generic "Asian kid" to me with all those APs/SATs. I don't know, as people are saying, however, you'll probably get into at least one of HYPSM, but I wouldn't be surprised at all if you didn't. Your ECs are way too all over the place and college-oriented as 1MX pointed out.</p>
<p>I guess my problem is that I have had too many interests then? But no, those were things I enjoyed doing. And yes, I had a life - not as much partying as most of my friends, but what can you do? Only 24 hours in a day.</p>
<p>Your scores and everything else is great.</p>
<p>The Discovery Tribute is your most prized-possession; you probably had to overcome something.</p>
<p>I'd say you're a match for all of those schools.</p>
<p>I never know what people are talking about when they list someone with 2350+ SAT as people as REACHES to ANY school. Crazy!</p>
<p>^ you obviously don't know how hard it is to get into HYPMS. Simply a 2350+ will not be enough at all to get in.</p>

<p>I do know this myself. Point being is I had nowhere near this score and managed to land Princeton and Dartmouth. What I'm saying is that someone with a score like that is hard to keep out. It's really hard to say that someone with a 2350 is only a reach no matter what their EC's are. Someone who lands between 25-75% of the class with scores is CONSIDERED a match regardless.</p>
<p>All of the Ivies clearly state that a low SAT score is NOT going to keep you out of the running for a spot in the class.</p>
<p>My EC's were "good" I'd say, and my SAT score was certainly below the curve for Ivy standards. But hey, I must not know how to impress Princeton admissions, right? </p>
<p>The point is never be discouraged in applying anywhere. Both of those institutions obviously thought I had something...</p>
<p>What does bump mean?</p>
<p>It just brings the thread to the top of the forum... and I didn't get many chances :(</p>
<p>Your EC's are impressive. But, not the best. You seem pretty well-rounded and you awards are distinct. </p>
<p>I'd say 2/5.</p>
<p>Thanks and bump ^_^</p>
<p>I don't know if this is good or bad news for you, but I think you're the type of applicant who'll either get admitted to most of HYPSM if not all or else you'll only be admitted to one if any of them. With excellent essays and stuff you'd probably get into all of them. Without them, you'd be lucky to get into one.</p>
<p>take math2c...... I'll recommend this...</p>
