Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hey guys, please give me your input. I'm posting all my stats so far. I'm going into 11th grade and I'm a female Indian.</p>

<p>~ ECs – Math Team, Literary Magazine, Newspaper, Culture, Book Club, Science Team
~ Leadership – Math Team captain, Lit Mag editor, Newspaper editor, Book Club president, Culture president, Violin treasurer, section leader and librarian
~ Math/Science tutoring
~ Spanish Exchange Trip
~ First to skip Spanish for a year
~ Fundraising for blind people
~ Community Service - 700 hours so far
~ Course load - first in my school's history to be taking 9 APs in 2 years
~ Valedactorian so far
~ dont know my GPA yet
~ National Youth Leadership Forum
~ I've issued some patents (creativity?)
~ Research on DNA at Brigham and Womens
~ I took Indian singing lessons and sent a tape to this popular Indian music director and he gave me an excellent recommendation for that
~ Art portfolio
~ I've gotten the academic awards every year in every single subject </p>

<p>These are my stats so far. The only thing I'm worried about is my SAT I and SAT IIs. I'm planning to take Math, Spanish and Chemistry SAT IIs. In the SAT I, I do great in the math and writing sections but not so great in the reading comprehension section. This is just experience from the practice tests. However, Im taking the Kaplan SAT review, and MIT SAT review. I'm hoping that should help me. Do you think that if a get decent scores (maybe 2100-2400 on SAT and 700-800 on SAT II), I have a chance of getting in. What else can I do? Please help me. MIT is my dream and I want to do everything in my capacity to increase my chances of acceptance. It would mean a lot to me if you guys give me your inputs.</p>

<p>Thanks,
A sincere student</p>

<p>pleaseeeeeee</p>

4

<p>ok man w/o ur sat scores and gpa/class rank i cannot tell u anything.
that research will look good for MIT, though</p>

5

<p>yeah you're missing the 2 most important factors--GPA and test scores. Also, have you taken the most difficult schedule possible at your school?</p>

6

<p>well, all my grades are straight A's and A+'s so my GPA should be good. And my rank is 1 so far. And I'm pretty sure I'll be the valedactorian. If not, I'll be in the top 3 for sure. As far as the SAT scores, Im hoping for somewhere between 2250-2400.</p>

7

<p>so now knowing that, what do you think?</p>

8

<p>I know that I don't have the scores yet, but I just wanted to know if I was on the right track you know.</p>

<p>I'd be surprised if you did not get in. Valedictorian, amazing extra curriculars, etc. You're the perfect student! Don't worry. :)</p>

13

<p>is there anything else i can do to improve my chances</p>

14

<p>All Indian music sounds the same :). Especially the girls=HIGH-pitch!</p>

15

<p>umm ok well i got a recommendation from this famous music director</p>

16

<p>ok umm yea i think u should get into MIT. but, summer of ur junior/senior year, apply to RSI (Research Science Institute). if u get in there, MIT is guaranteed. and apply to other research programs too. and then submit ur research for Intel STS or Siemens-Westinghouse or both. desi ftw.</p>

17

<p>alright thanks and do you recommend early action</p>

18

<p>If I do submit it to Intel thats in November, and I apply in November so is that still alright</p>
