<p>bump (10 char)</p>

<p>wow nice stats</p>

<p>UCs - safety</p>

<p>I don't really know about the others though. Good luck.</p>

<p>Well, the Ivies are reaches for everyone...but I think you have a good a shot as everyone else.</p>

<p>You have a very good shot with UC's. But the Ivies+Stanford are going to be very hard for you. Your ECs are pretty good as is USABO. However the 1450/1600 SAT score is at the average (in the case of Upenn) and below average for the other schools. I don't know how this will play out in light of your Val status and 2380 SAT II's though. Good Luck man, though.</p>

<p>i took the sat i my sophomore year</p>

<p>I like your stats and your dedication to extracurriculars such as piano. I think you should look for schools which focus on the sciences, since that's my impression of where your passions lie.</p>

<p>i have too many passions</p>

<p>too many passions = no passion in my opinion?</p>

<p>that is generally a sad misconception. can't people love a few different things just because they have the capacity to? there's no one formula for personality. it's dangerous and presumptious to go around judging people like that.</p>
