<p>Hello friends!</p>
<p>I'm from Asia, and in a pretty spiffy school. I'm thinking about whether I should apply to Pomona/Williams/Tufts/Smith, and I have to make my decision ASAP so I can focus on the supp essays. Sooo here goes :P</p>
<p>SAT1:2310
SAT2: just took Physics, Math and Chem. don't know my results yet.</p>
<p>We don't really have a GPA here, but it should suffice to say I'm p much above average in a school where everybody practically has the same grades due to the already preexisting selectivity of my school. My grades are currently straight Bs, which is admittedly pretty ugly, but I didn't study hard enough (brb regretting). Predicted grades for the 'A' Levels should be straight 'A's though, and that'll show in my transcript. </p>
<p>As for ECs, I was in the canoeing team, where I put in~18h a week for around 40 weeks. We didn't win much, unfortunately.</p>
<p>I also am part of a Business Leadership Programme, and head of my business team; we did a startup weekend-esque thing where we conducted fieldwork, consulted business advisors, and, in 72h (and 6h sleep), pitched our ideas to real-life investors. My principal came up to me and asked to buy my idea, but as I was also training then, I decided not to take her up on her offer.</p>
<p>I've interned at various places such as tourism agencies and an online network startup. Still am an intern (sorta).</p>
<p>I have also competed in various Math Olympiads (#typicalazn), and I was sent to Korea in 9th grade. I also did a few research papers on the field of Math.</p>
<p>That, and I also lift. I'm a tiny 5'1 girl btw :D If that's any help. It's one of my passions.</p>
<p>Also, I had an interview with Pomona and Smith. :)</p>
<p>tl;dr: I like small schools, my grades are pretty okay but not spectacular, ditto for ECs, but diverse and 'well rounded' i suppose. Pls chance thx luvlis</p>
<p>Yep. Thanks so much in advance! :D</p>
