<p>You obviously have worked very hard, and deserve the right to "ask"/apply. Any one of those schools would benefit from your background and insight. Good Luck!</p>

<p>Princeton - slight reach with the ED (but everybody is at least a slight reach)
Amherst - slight reach
Cornell - in
Yale - slight reach (tied with MIT for worst chance)
Georgetown - in for sure
MIT - slkight reach
Stanford - smallest reach possibe - good chance
UChicago - great chance
Brown - great chance</p>

<p>nothing in particular seems to "stand out", but i'm sure you'd be competitive at most of those</p>

5

<p>vinnipuh- Add your name to the Princeton ED Roster thread. We're a friendly bunch.</p>

<p>Good shot.</p>

<p>And YES, COME JOIN US AT THE PRINCETON FORUM.
muahahahaha</p>

<p>sonofdad,
hopefully being fluent in four languages will be the standing out factor!</p>

<p>if you wrote an essay about that, i'm sure it'd look great. however, i don't think simply having that on the application will put you above the hundreds of other candidates with similar scores/ec's</p>

<p>You're right.
Well, let's say I have a 10% chance.
That's still a 10% chance.</p>

<p>And that's still 10% more than 0%.
Thanks for your feeeedback.
Merci. Spasibo. Dyakuyu. Gracias. Ringraziamenti!</p>

<p>I am confused. You are graduating in 3 years? Huh? Where do you live now?</p>

<p>It all looks good, but you NEED a safety!</p>

11

<p>Yes sir/ma'am/miss,</p>

<p>I am graduating in three years from a PA school.
It's a family problem resulting in this quick graduation.
Basically, my parents want to go back to Ukraine and left me not much choice because my grandmother is pretty sick.
And, I had enough credits. It seemed okay. Kind of sad to leave my awesome friends and school, and awesome teachers. And kind of sad that my parents are leaving. Alright, pardon for the sob-story there.</p>

<p>In other news, what's a good safety?</p>

12

<p>wow, with ur credentials, and the fact that u are graduating 3 years early,
u'll get in for sure</p>

<p>why not harvard/princeton though?</p>

<p>College<em>Clueless</em> indeed.</p>
