<p>I would say that your 800 on the math sat, and your other stats, would give you a chance everywhere.</p>

<p>I would probably not submit the ACT score. The 800 SAT score in math speaks for itself.</p>

<p>Your only weakness is your sat score in CR, and I think many schools won’t care about that if you make it clear that you will be studying science and math.</p>

<p>UW GPA?</p>

<p>Good course rigor though, 2250 is definitely on the low side for an Asian male
Strong EC’s will help you, and you seem quite focused on what you want to do, that’s good as well.</p>
