<p>The point of this thread is to get everyone in my situation prepared emotionally for a negative outcome (or a positive one, at least this was what I hoped )...who knows what may happen...this is like a mattress to absorb some pain when I (or some possible others)fall on the ground...You guys are saving my life!!!</p>
<p>thousands, no millions of kids want to be in your situation...lighten up and relax. don't take yourself so seriously. your going to end up at least at one of the colleges you listed. your probably going to get your degree with flying colors and if your lucky will have a wonderful life. spread the wealth and share your happiness (you should be happy) with people not as capable as you.</p>
<p>Do u play varsity basketball? that would be a good ec.</p>
<p>i am a chinese too, if you can eat fast---you must be a "well-rounded" person.
but just do some EAs.
my scores: sat math IC 770, IIC 800. physics 800, chemitry 800, writing 720
and i am in Canada for one and half years.
i am still doing o lot of EAs, so my suggestion is that you are not the best tester, so do some EAs.</p>
<p>my chinese is 800 as well</p>
<p>THANKS~~=)...Well...I want to be well rounded...but not in that way...=P
Good luck to you all too!</p>
<p>how the freak did you manage a 770 in verbal after learning english for only three years??!!! that is an amazing accomplishment.</p>
<p>i've been here four years and i studied my butt off and managed a 700.</p>
<p>BTW, why is your AP English score only a 3? You might wanna withhold that, cuz a 770 verbal / 3 ap eng might raise some eyebrows.</p>
<p>Maybe I am a luckier person =)</p>
<p>spend a couple minutes at a few clubs and put dem on ur app. once u go to a club meeting, u become a member.</p>
<p>But you have to list how long you've bee in the club and for how many hours a week you spend at them.</p>
<p>What's the point of saying "Member of X Club for 1 hour a week, 1 week per year"?</p>
<p>naw u dont</p>
<p>for the colleges listed, yes you do. and being a member means nothing. admissions officers know that.</p>
<p>Have you ever looked at an application? Oh right, '06. Of course not.</p>
<p>Look at an app, any app. They will always ask you how long you've been part of an EC and some measure of your commitment to it.</p>
<p>Go learn oboe and play it really well. ;)</p>
<p>O.o...Isn't it too late for anything? except! to win some places in contests...Iam just started on it, which means I will have to try to compete with those people who have been working on these things for years..</p>
<p>Maybe you ought to consider fabricating and amazing story for your essay.</p>
<p>Penn accepts like 10-15 kids from my school w/o any activities </p>
