<p>GPA: 4.0 uw
Rank: 1/756 (2 people hold this rank, including me)</p>

<p>SAT I: 2300 (750v, 800m, 750w) - i got 2180 first time. 2300 is my retake score.</p>

<p>SAT II:
Math2c - 800
Korean - 800 (yes im a native =[ )
Physics - 780</p>

<p>EC:
key club(9-12)
california scholarship federation (9-12)
Tae kwon do (9-12) - i am a first degree black-belt
Tennis (10-12)
Environmental science club (10-12) - i founded this club
hospital volunteer (10-12)
I went to this summer program called COSMOS and did labs/projects (it is a research program by the UCs that lets the high school students use college facilities)</p>

<p>Awards:
1st place presenter in COSMOS astrophysics/astronomy.
2nd place in technical report for ASCE annual popsicle bridge contest
3rd place in presentation for ASCE annual popsicle bridge contest
and I got some school awards for best in science and math.</p>

<p>Another thing I want to mention is the rigor of the classes I have taken. Does anyone know how much emphasis is put on the rigor of the classes?</p>

<p>Our school doesn't offer AP Physics (infact, our school didn't even offer honors physics until this year), but I took AP Physics B during my junior year and am taking AP Physics C right now (these are online classes through UCCP program). I was the only person in our school to take AP Physics B and I am the only person in our school to take AP Physics C. I also took physics at UCLA during the summer of my soph/junior year and received an A+.
And I am one of the two people in our school taking AP Calculus B/C.</p>

<p>Oh, and I think I have really good recommendations. My teachers said that I am one of the top few in their careers. I'm not sure about my essays. </p>

<p>My chances for (my dream schools):
MIT
Caltech
Harvard
Princeton
Yale
Stanford</p>

<p>I'd appreciate honest feedback please!</p>

<p>P.S. I got deferred from MIT EA. I think it was my low sat1 score. Now I can send them my new score.</p>

<p>GPA: 4.0 uw, Rank: 1/756, SAT I: 2300...you can't get any more qualified! Congrats! I think you have a great shot at MIT and Caltech and I think you're bound to land one or more from the Harvard/Princeton/Yale/Stanford list.</p>

3

<p>my sat1 was just pure luck in my opinion. i thought i got about 2200 or 2220.</p>

<p>Hey, luck is a very nice thing to have lol. Just curious: you wrote that MIT, Caltech, Harvard, Princeton, Yale, and Stanford are your "dream schools." I'd say you have to get into a few, but admissions are so random and competitive for so few spots you never know what's going to happen. Just wondering what others you're applying to.</p>

5

<p>UCLA and berkeley and im instate</p>

6

<p>i have pretty similar stats and i'm applying to similar schools; good luck</p>

7

<p>good luck to you to man</p>

8

<p>UCLA/UCB: Safe Match</p>

9

<p>yea being instate is just such a good thing!</p>

10

<p>For sure! I'm a CA resident that applied to the UC's too. I don't have the superhuman stats you have (4.2W/3.8UW/4.0UC), but I'm shooting for UCB and UCLA anyway. I really like UCSD (fingers crossed) and UCD too.</p>

11

<p>4.0 and instate give you such good chances man!</p>

12

<p>I know...all that's left is to wait 4 months to find out!!! What am I supposed to do for 4 months?!? lol we'll all deal with it...I guess.</p>

13

<p>hahahaha. i cant handle the 4 months man...</p>

<p>anyone else?</p>

<p>You have an awesome chance at all your options. I got a SAt score more or less similar to your first SAt I, I'm shooting for 2200-2300 any tips?</p>
