<p>hello I was wondering about my chances of getting into columbia.</p>
<p>I'm applying early to SEAS</p>
<p>Currently, the classes I'm taking are:</p>
<p>AP Psychology
AP Biology
Ap English
Independent Study(Stanford math 51, linear algebra and differential calc)
Teacher's assistant for BC Calc</p>
<p>My unweighted gpa from 9-11 is 3.93, weighted 10-11 is like 4.14
my combined highest SAT score is 2250, SAT II chemistry is 790, SAT II math is 800, SAT II chinese is 800</p>
<p>For extracurriculars, I play badminton alot. I play on the skool team, I joined freshmen year and was on Varsity team since sophomore year. From freshmen year till junior year, I've also played at a club on weekends.</p>
<p>I was also on the school newspaper, a well known newspaper, for a year but I was only a staff writer.</p>
<p>I only did 100+ hours of volunteering at YMCA summer camp and I'm also applicable for a president's award, bronze</p>
<p>Im involved in a few clubs at school, not too many, and leadership positions only this year, and not the big ones, I think I can put like vice president or treasurer but that's like it so clubs things not too much</p>
<p>Junior year, I also did Science Olympiad, I was on B team, and the events I did were food science, chemistry, and write it do it. I got second place at write it do it at regionals</p>
<p>I feel like I can write alot about science and math, I've always been good at math and I skipped a year in order to be able to take stanford math in senior year. I'm also leaning towards medicine because my grandma passed away due to cancer so yea..</p>
<p>My essay won't be too good since I'm not that good at english. I moved to U.S. in 5th and was in ESL until 8th grade.</p>
<p>My recs will be coming from my chem teacher and math teacher. My chem teacher doesn't like me as much as my BC calc math teacher does. My math teacher is also very happy that I'm helping her correcting homeworks.</p>
<p>I also know that from my school like 2 other people are also applying early to columbia, and one of them is an editor in-chief of our school magazine, which is really good. So i was wondering whether applying to SEAS will still make me be compared to her since she's applying to the other one.</p>
<p>and Thx in advance for any comments, I'm just wondering about my chances, I heard applying early helps but i rlly wanna know whether I have a good chance or not >_></p>
<p>o yea I forgot to mention my ap scores, I got 5's on AP chem, AP BC calc, and Ap chinese</p>
<p>and im also asian if that makes any difference >_>, shouldn't do much =D</p>
