<p>Hi, I am from Europe and I cannot resist to post here anymore :)</p>
<p>GPA: 4.0 "equivalent" (see at the end of the post)
SAT: (practice papers) 800 M / ~750 CR / ~780 W, aiming for 2300 this October
SAT II: Aiming for 800 in both Maths and Physics, might as well take both level of maths.
AP: we don't have that
Rank: not ranked, but highest grades in graduating class. (and probably the first person ever to apply to the foreign university, let alone Ivies)</p>
<p>ECs:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Founder of a nonprofit organization aimed to provide detailed information about degrees, careers and universities in our country, as well as information about admission processes to higher education institutions in the UK, USA and Denmark. We are collaborating with two other projects that are focusing on career paths and I guess I can say we are known all around the country (8k ppl or facebook). Starting in June, we are going to tour around the country and do presentations on high schools. I do not know if this matters, but I payed early costs from my own savings, later we were given a financial aid from a foundation</p></li>
<li><p>For past 6 months or so, I am touring around high schools with people from the project we are collaborating with, as I said previously, they talk a lot more about careers, while we will talk more about universities.</p></li>
<li><p>I have been selected, even as a high school student, to a program for 20 college students (out of 1200 applicants I think, I went to three interviews, I took an IQ test as well as a mathematics test) named "Raising the leaders of tomorrow". The goal is to provide opportunities, get involved in interesting projects, get career guidance, get lectures from successful people (Country manager of Google, founders of various companies), get to know interesting people as well as provide internships in companies such as Google, AT&T, Intel, BMW... Starting in September.</p></li>
<li><p>Selfstudied maths and physics, taking private math classes (linear algebra, advanced calculus, analysis), tutoring (how original :D). Mathematics is my passion, it is definitely going to be my future major (with CS maybe).</p></li>
<li><p>Not sure if it counts as EC, but I took two online courses - CS50x from Harvard and Calculus One from Ohio. </p></li>
<li><p>Swimming for 5 years, used to play piano for 3 years</p></li>
