<p>So do u think its possible for me to get into MIT?</p>
<p>Your math/science is great and so are you ECs, but I think you need to work on your verbal ability. A 630 on the writing isn't terrible, but it isn't outstanding either. Try to write a really good essay and maybe join some clubs, like the school newspaper.</p>
<p>Good Luck!</p>
<p>what race are u? From what I have seen, if you are part of the Black, Hispanic, or Native Indian group, you have an amazing chance.</p>
<p>" I am a first generation Japanese American"
...I believe she would be classified as Asian?</p>
<p>could a first generation ...balance out an Asian?
advantage....and.......disadvantage</p>
<p>what would have more weight?</p>
<p>i doubt it...i'm first generation south-asian american and still get clumped with asians :)</p>
<p>apply and find out :)</p>
<p>srry. didn't catch that Jap-American thing</p>
<p>are pacific islanders usually clumped w/ asians?</p>
<p>depends on which side of the dateline. For instance, people from Hawaii/Tahiti/Samoa aren't generally thought of as "Asian", though some from eastern alaska might? </p>
<p>I've always seen a "Pacific Islander" bubble, though.</p>
