<p>Personality
I guess im the funny guy in my group of friends, pretty social, intelligent while still being athletic and not nerdy. Relaxed to the point where most people think im lazy and apathetic, even my teachers lol. its ok cause i know a few from whom i can get stellar recommendations. I also like to read.
I feel like I can pull of a pretty nice interview, Im a good speaker.</p>

<p>Legacy
brother and sister graduated Harvard Undergrad</p>

<p>Schools
EA at Harvard, not cause of family pressure at all, I just really want to go there cause I did and those people are similar to me.
Id prob go to Stanford or MIT if I get in</p>

<p>If I come across as bragging its purely unintentional, im really a humble guy, most people I meet dont even realize im smart and if they ask me my PSAT scores they usually cant believe me. One interesting thing is how differently they react when they realize that you're extremely bright, well not everyone but some people.</p>

<p>wow this is a long post
So... what do you think?</p>

2

<p>you're golden sir.</p>

3

<p>WOW! I wish I had your stats. WOW. . . that is all i can say. WOW!</p>

4

<p>You have great stats, and you stand an excellent chance at Harvard.
i don't think brother and sister count as a legacy, but i could be wrong. I'm pretty sure it's only parents. </p>

<p>On a separate note, you seem to be afraid to be perceived as a nerd. Dude, there's nothing wrong w/ being a nerd at all. If u get into RSI then ur gonna be hangin out w/ them and you're gonna be forging bonds w/ them. Nothin wrong w/ letting your nerdy side show, and i don't really think Mathletes is nerdy.</p>

5

<p>Good stats, you'll do fine, but you will not be considered a legacy at H so you may want to do EA/ED to your real first choice.</p>

6

<p>I agree, you have a good chance at Harvard. I've heard that they don't like to reject siblings of current students if they have similiar stats, and you definitely seem to be at that level.</p>

<p>edit: That's actually what my Harvard interviewer, who used to work in admissions, told me when I said that my sibling went there. Not the part about the similiar stats, but that the fact that my sibling is going there would help me.</p>

7

<p>Yeah Im going to apply early at Harvard cause I really want to go there. It is my real first choice lol.
Oh dude, you dont think Mathletes is nerdy? Are you on it? Its insane, I cant even talk to those kids all they understand is computer games and DDR tournaments. Thats just not me.</p>

<p>edit: but my bro and sis already graduated? does that matter?</p>

8

<p>go to mit!!!!!!</p>

9

<p>by the way you're amazing. you don't mind if i ... persay kill you and switch bodies and brains with you right? k sweet</p>

10

<p>yeah I would but only cause its per se lol</p>

<p>and thanks for the ego stroke, I hope I dont get overconfident</p>

11

<p>yea but the harvard ad com prolly won't think badly of you becuz u attend mathletes. they wanna see talent in one area, and seeing that ur really advanced in math, it's prolly good to show that ur good at math outside of just taking courses.</p>

12

<p>truuue I didnt think of that</p>

13

<p>Bump Bump Bump it upppp</p>

14

<p>Dude not only do you seem unusually smart, but you don't seem nerdy at all either.
Except for the mathletes <em>lol</em> :P</p>

<p>And yeah it's true those kids are nerds... And being a nerd is not good, simply because being a nerd = no social life (which is essential to grow as a person), no fitness (essential if you don't want to die from a heart attack at 30) and no interests outside of nerdy stuff (dungeons and dragons, star trek), and finally, no sex (which is esential to... hell, it's essential just for the sake of it)</p>

<p>If you don't fit that description you are not a nerd.
By the way good grades do not = nerd, I know plenty of athletes etc who get amazing grades and are really smart, I in fact hope to become a super-smart athlete before June.</p>

<p>ummm id like some comments from accepted people or like alumni or current students maybe?</p>
