<p>Ok ok, I got yah. But I know I'm going to be. Check this out:</p>

<p>Best friend's stats (applied EA, waitlisted): 1530/800/800/800/5.3wgpa 1/77 rank eagle scout NorthJersey Scholar numerous awards from state</p>

<p>Me: 1370/710/700/700 4.7w 3.85uw 8/77 Co-leader of school's NJ Science League top 12 (soon to be top 10!!) Chem II team (out of 160+ teams in the state) - Mu Alpha Theta Secretary, RPI Medal Award, youth group leader</p>

<p>My interviewer said i was "great" so i guess that helps a little. I dont have a real good hook except that I have a twin (two tuitions at once) and a son of a single parent working two jobs to make ends meet. That was told in the fin-aid stuff. What grabbed us to Harvard even with a tiny chance was the fact that we would qualify for almost all the tuition to be covered under Harvard's "Under $40,000 salary" fin-aid plan. So anyways, when the rejection letter comes April 1st (or online rather) I will congratulate all acceptees - I think I have good shot at Cornell and a decent/small chance at Columbia, so I'll be awaiting those as well.</p>
