<p>Hi everyone,</p>

<p>I'd like to start off and say that I did get into Princeton. My stats are below:
2200 SAT

750 Math</p>

<p>760 Math I Subject
720 Mol Bio</p>

Perfect A+'s since freshman year
Currently in 4 AP courses

Come from small school
I am also a white male and this was Early Action</p>

<p>Now, a friend of mine is also applying to Princeton for Regular Decision.
She does not have straight A+'s and currently has a B in our AP Euro class and is an A average overall.
1690 SAT total; 1110 CR + Math</p>

<h1>2 in class</h1>

<p>Don't know about Subject Test scores (prolly similar)
Involved in same activities with "better" leadership as high school is a popularity contest - Newspaper and Yearbook
Class President
Only has soccer as a sport for two years
Involved in Church heavily
Musical skills with Clarinet (I think received some honors)
Only in 2 AP courses of high school's max 3 (I took 1 extra online)
Is Filipino</p>

<p>What do you guys think? Would Princeton take two kids from the same school? Would it be us two?</p>

<p>Congrats OP, unfortunately I don’t think your friend’s chances are great</p>

<p>Unfortunately those SATs would make an acceptance unlikely. Congrats for you though!</p>

<p>SAT is way below the average, but if she has any SPECTACULAR hooks, then that’s a maybe.</p>

<p>The only spectacular hook maybe is moving to the United States as she was born in the Philippines and “overcame” a cultural barrier. The reason for quotes being that she has always spoken with great English since we could speak. She isn’t awkward either.</p>

<p>no. Tell her to apply to SAT optional schools.</p>
