<p>I was asking someone for top Physics and Math colleges and one of the college mentioned was this. I never knew of this college.
My stats
SAT
Math-800
CR- 650
Writing - 650</p>
<p>SAT 2
Math 1 - 760 (i have seen the admission, they don't accept this)
Math 2 - 760
Chemistry - 760</p>
<p>AP CHemistry + Ap Computer Science Ab -->5</p>
<p>I am currently an intern at a Lab that deals with intestinal testing for milk sensitivity.
My extra cirriculars are normal, not great
My gpa is 3.87, 7th rank</p>
<p>My school doesn't offer AIME and other math competitions, I have pressured our Math Head and he seems lazy. </p>
<p>I have entered the AMYTC math competition in my local community college in desperate need for math competitions. I have not gotten the result yet.</p>
<p>Harvey Mudd is hard to tell because I think they are more selective than their acceptance percentage would lead one to believe, since the applicant pool is fairly self-selective, but you definitely have a good shot.</p>
<p>I agree with bigmrpig - It's really hard to tell with Harvey Mudd, but I'd definitely give it a shot. It's a really awesome school if you're looking for a broad-based education that still has a strong focus on math/science.</p>
<p>Our school just had their 1st graduating class last year.
We are second.
The AP they offer are
AP CHem
AP BIo
AP PHY
AP CAL
AP english lang and lit
Ap computer science
AP Art</p>
<p>I already took Ap computer Science and Ap chemistry, I took Ap english Language and got a 3 (not a native tongue), i didn't mention it because its not worth anything.
I am Currently taking AP Phy, AP CAl and Ap eng Lit with the inclusion of College Algebra and College eco/gov from a nearby community college (dual-credit)</p>
<p>That leaves out AP Art , Ap bio which is not my interest (yuck)</p>
<p>So thats how it is.
+ i moved in from Asia 2 years ago</p>
<p>fyi:
at mudd, you'll be expected to write a good amount through your hum1 class. they will have the same expectations for you as someone who only speaks english. while this can be daunting, they will give you opportunity to go in for extra help. i know a girl who came from china last year... she had trouble with english. she worked with the faculty a lot and got up to speed. seemed like a lot of work though.</p>
<p>My frosh friend is also a Chinese international student and it seems that her prof grades her on an easier scale. She's passed every essay and her writing isn't the quality I would expect for a passing grade. I wouldn't worry too much about the Hum aspect. You can take classes where you don't have to write that much after your first Hum class. Your first Hum class is only pass/fail anyway.</p>

<p>Not the case last year. I, as well, have an international friend who did not speak english very well. I remember every time I walked up and down the hum department she would be meeting with her hum professor. At one point, I asked her if things were going better for her and she said that her professor and herself made a deal to meet several times a week to work on their writing and if it improved a lot by the end of the semester they would pass her. Perhaps the expectations weren't exactly the same but they definitely did not let her cakewalk hum 1.</p>
