You certainly rank among the strong candidates I interview, and I’m not talking about your test scores and grades because we don’t see those. You show leadership, consistency/longevity, success, and variety with your activities. You’ve shown you’ve made a positive change in your community. All good things. A lot of applicants don’t achieve all that. You should feel proud. I believe your chances are better than a good percentage of the applicants with whom I meet. Is MIT your first choice?

Good Luck! You deserve all the very best!

Very impressive indeed @bellalindsay . All the best!

Yes, MIT, University of Michigan, or any Ivy are my top choice

Math - is your interest!! Your first and foremost college to consider is Princeton --Plus they give the most money for kids who have financial need!
No other Math program is even close…yes, saw that you mentioned Ivies but Math in Princeton is special!!!

Good Luck!!

Thank you very much for that!!

You lose me when you just mention Ivy’s, and leave out UChicago, Caltech, RIT, Stanford, etc.
