<p>wow thats pretty impressive, minus the standardized test scores. i think u have over 50% at the big ivies and stanford, but since u are asian the essay has to be good. defintely in on the UCs and hopkins</p>

3

<p>Average? A class valedictorian is average?</p>

<p>I refuse to provide you with the ego boost you so crave.</p>

4

<p>i think you are not gonna get into any of those colleges</p>

<p>try to contact fullerton college or cypress college</p>

5

<p>You definitely want to take every college I'm interested in off that list. You're far too "average" to compete with the rest of us.</p>

6

<p>bump bump bump</p>

7

<p>seeing that you're dishonest about your ("average") record, I would say a reach for all.</p>

8

<p>oh come on...maybe i wasn't being honest
but any opinions out there?</p>

9

<p>1/554? You have no reasonable chance at any of those colleges until you break the top 0.017%, you're at a pathetic top 0.018%. You might have a chance at UC Merced if your essays are stunning.</p>

10

<p>if you're going to use sarcasm, you might as well do it right
1/554 is 0.0018% not 0.018%
so i guess i've broken your top 0.017% requirement</p>

<p>any serious person want to chance me?</p>

Actually we're both wrong, it's 0.18%, but regardless, there's no reason to make a thread like this other than to bolster your ego.</p>

12

<p>yah it is 0.18% haha we both messed up
considering the school i come from, i am quite average</p>

13

<p>Yeah you're competitive at all of those, ivies are always a toss up though.</p>

<p>thank you VASkindsFan08 for giving me a serious response</p>
