<p>i'll be a junior next year</p>

<p>Wow good chance at all (top 15 are unpredictable though). You have a great app with very competitive ECs. I have a chance on here too if you wanna chance back.</p>

<p>This ■■■■■ post displays superb craftsmanship. Proceeding from the top, you will note a near-perfect SAT and an Ivy-normal ACT. Definitely believable on CC. Focus your attention on the 3.9 uw gpa; ■■■■■ clearly strives for authenticity and realism here. The 7.1 uw gpa could be a typo, or an indicator of fabrication. Probably the latter. </p>

<p>Notice the STEM-qualities of the ■■■■■, as evident in SATII scores, AP scores, and a laundry list of impressive math course taken at, of course, Yale University. Perhaps, we think, this guy is legit. </p>

<p>Then things fall apart. Note the generic “Math Team” without accompanying awards. This guy supposedly toke multivariate calculus at Yale but cannot dominate a HS math competition. Fishy. </p>

<p>Looking closer, we see OP has a job as a “paid musician” but nowhere in his post is there mention of music-related activities. Surely, with such talent, there should be a musical history. </p>

<p>Lastly, we come to the sheer volume of OP’s accomplishments: a combined 1230 hours of research/shadowing/volunteerism, while taking FIVE mathematics course at Yale… all before junior year. LOL RIGHT. </p>

<p>Finally, we’ll note that OP attempts to establish the Hispanic realism with AP Spanish. Furthermore, we’ll note instances of jargon: “ciligonesis and polycystic” and - to a lesser extent - “rheumatoid arthritis”. </p>

<p>OP, being the pathetic ■■■■■ that he/she is, will be coming nowhere but community college for two years because every other college will have rejected him/her on the basis of falsifying documents. Have a nice day. :)</p>

<p>? the reason i have no math team awards is because the competitions are all algebra
i was never that fast or complex with my algebra knowledge</p>

<p>paid musician means i do people’s parties or really small concerts so chill</p>

<p>the 5 yale classes are during the year and during the summer some classes are during the summer and finish during the summer so its easy to do even more</p>

<p>i dont know what op is either</p>

<p>also, gpa is 7.1</p>

<p>my school does wgpa out of 8 because we have level courses: 5,7,9,AP,DC.CP</p>

6

<p>A smart person would not take both Math1 and Math2 subject tests. ;)</p>

<p>By the way, it is hard to get a paper published at all when you only work such as short time in a lab unless you are just one of the author on a long list. Also, I would only put the name of a high school student in the acknowledgement at best unless he has major contribution to the paper which needs to be far beyond 180+450 hours.</p>

<p>@billcsho</p>

<p>the research assistant in volunteer work is separate from my published research</p>

<p>the assistant work was after freshman year whereas the published work was from sophomore year to the end of sophomore summer (far exceeds 800 hrs)</p>

<p>also, why not take math1/math2?</p>

8

<p>^ It is a waste of money to take both Math1 and Math2. They only count one.</p>

9

<p>ARE YOU KIDDING ME? i spend sooo much time studying for those</p>

<p>if i submit only one, which should i send?</p>

10

<p>Neither…</p>

11

<p>headed2great: ? what are you saying? if you’re not helping, please leave</p>

12

<p>Send math 2 only</p>

13

<p>ok thanks!</p>

14

<p>your grades and scores are excellent
why did you take Math SAT 1 AND 2 though??</p>

<p>math seems to be your strong point so I would suggest doing other math-related extracurriculars. Research, math competitions, interesting math programs go a long way. because of your awards in other areas you should have a decent chance at all the schools though</p>

<p>HYPSM/Caltech: low-mid reach
UPenn/Columbia/Brown: slightly lower reach
NW: high match
Georgia Tech, drexel, UConn - safety to low match</p>
