but if you want to post here, feel free</p>

<p>WUSSUP?
I guess it will be fine to reply here instead cuz the Korean Thread you mentioned seems…inactive</p>

<p>I’m a Junior attending a school in Busan,Korea.
Unlike majority of students planning for colleges abroad, I attend a public school.</p>

<p>I’m planning to major in Biology but <em>wish to</em> minor or double
anything artsy…</p>

<p>Since I took the SAT for the first time last year, I plan to take it
again in '10.
Here are my stats-I guess it all depends on what tier you consider, but I think
somewhere in the middle for most Koreans… LOL
CR 620
M 710
WR630
GPA: Since I attend a non-international school, I’m not sure what kind of GPA I would have…</p>

<p>I’m still searching for what school I would like to attend, so I only have a vague idea about it.</p>

<p>ANy other Koreans here?</p>

<p>looks like this thread as well as the other korean thread mentioned above hasn’t been very active…kinda weird cuz i know there’s a lotta korean intels out there,and that includes myself
i go to a tiny private school in CA and im a junior this year.
i have, yet, a 4.0 of unweighed GPA (i don’t know the exact figure for the weighed one) but i’m failing in my early band class cuz of bad attendence…so it’s more than likely that i won’t graduate w/ a 4.0 gpa…bummer… oh well its a non academic course so colleges won’t really take it into consideration…i hope</p>

<p>so far, i have taken SATs once and i received 610/800/670…(in my opinion…not bad for the first try…since i’m still in the process of bringing it up to the point i’m satisfied…) and also i took SATs math2, Korean and got 800s on both…</p>

<p>Good lord. Now I know the reason I don’t make Korean friends-they make me feel so stupid.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.55
SAT: 2020 (superscore), 1940 (best single sitting)
Went to a private school in CA
Junior at NYU. Econ/law&society/business studies.</p>

<p>LSAC Undergrad GPA: 3.4 to 3.43. Though it’s slowly but surely going up.</p>

<p>wow! did any of you get accepted yet??
i got in to Wake Forest, how is the diversity in the school you’ve applied to??
personally for me the first thing i will do when i get to NC is to find a nice korean church to go to x)
i think the korean churches are the best places for a little bit of feel at home kind xD
do you guys have any plans on to how your going to survive with out kimchi? :o</p>
