<p>Hey guys, I'd like to know if I have a reasonable shot at getting in to those HYSPM. I'm currently a sophomore, and my schedule will have been:</p>

<p>Freshman</p>

Span 5-6
PE

<p>Sophomore</p>

<p>(for AL and QB I already have a confirmed coach position in 11th and 12th grade, that means me coaching the Freshman)</p>

<p>Counselor for Jewish kids
Chemistry Research at a college (research / internship, currently doing and publishing a paper in the next ~ 6 months)

<p>Assuming I get a SAT of higher than like 2300, all As, and possibly a few leadership positions in my various clubs, do I have a good chance for HYPSM? I know it's early but I'm worried I'm not doing enough.</p>

<p>Thanks in advance guys!</p>

<p>…who knows? You’re still a sophomore…</p>

<p>“Assuming I get a SAT of higher than like 2300, all As, and possibly a few leadership positions in my various clubs”
Why don’t you focus on doing that first, and then worry about your chances ;)</p>

3

<p>if you can publish a paper that’s gold</p>

4

<p>You can’t just assume you’re gonna get over a 2300…</p>

<p>come back in 2 years and we’ll talk</p>
