ELC qualifed – Got it in the mail yesterday.</p>

<p>Extracurriculars</p>

<ul>
<li>Popping/Hip hop dance for 4 years. Performed at kollaboration 2007. (pretty good at this, I dedicate a lot of my time to dancing)</li>
<li>Work at my dad's computer shop. (My dad operates the shop by himself so I have to help out. ~20 hours a week for about two years now)</li>
<li>Peer tutor in school (I use my lunch time to tutor kids in math/science)</li>
<li>Mu Alpha Theta president (national math club organization, will hold my position)</li>
<li>Korean Club VP junior year. President this year.</li>
<li>Teaching and helping "mentally" disabled kids at a local elementary school. (I can do this only during summer/winter/spring breaks since those are the only times where my school time doesn't coincide with the elementary school times)</li>
<li>Tennis (private lessons but not competitive and not that good either) - 3 years</li>
<li>Piano (pretty good) - passed level 9 CM test</li>
<li>I am involved in various other environmental activities (like beach clean ups, planting tress, etc.)</li>
</ul>

<p>Misc</p>

<p>I will have enough college credits by the time I enroll in college to have a junior status</p>

<p>My community classes will let me skip 7 of the 10 required GEs at UCLA, if I do go there. I am pretty sure I will be able to skip out of a lot of classes even if I go somewhere else.</p>

<p>My UC capped gpa is relatively low just because I took too many classes. I even had to limit myself from taking more classes because I figured my gpa was going down even if I take APs and honors classes and get A’s in them.</p>

<p>First generation to go to college</p>

<p>Prospective Math/econ major</p>

<p>Schools - No EA or ED
UPenn
UC Berkeley
Cornell
UCLA
UCSD - Safety</p>

<p>Not expecting much positive responses on Penn, but chance me?</p>

<p>yeah so you're in everywhere. upenn, though is looking a little hazy. </p>

<p>p.s. nice headline...except that can't be possible. haha</p>

<p>chance me too <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/569604-so-last-one-had-too-many-errors-one-s-better.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/569604-so-last-one-had-too-many-errors-one-s-better.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>UPenn- Reach (Your math2, SAT, and GPA don't look so good for this school)
UCB- in
Cornell - Low Reach (depens on ur SAT)
UCLA - in
UCSD- Definately in.</p>

<p>Thanks you to you both. SAT will be mid 2100s. I was reconsidering retaking the SAT2 math, but decided against it. And my weighted gpa is 3rd highest in my school (out of like 700 students). I guess the unweighted is a bit low in comparison.</p>

<p>Sorry GSW Fan, I am not familiar with the schools you are applying to. Good luck on your apps though.</p>

<p>Great chances for everything...but Penn not sooo sure as it is a crapshoot for everyone.</p>

<p>thanks.. any more suggestions/inputs?</p>

<p>Um, doesn't California cap the number of community college courses you can take each year in high school?</p>

<p>yeah, but the cap is 11 semester units per semester. That quite a huge cap so I can take any classes I want.</p>
