<p>Come on people help my friend out! PLEASE I offer pie</p>

<p>MIT/Harvard–MAYBE. Those are toss-ups, always, but this is definitely a VERY strong student with great EC’s.</p>

<p>Prob will get into at least a FEW Ivy’s, especially some of the lower ones or the ones with high(er) acceptance rates, like Cornell.</p>

4

<p>YAY! Thanks that’s awesome to hear anyone else?</p>

5

<p>That GPA/Rank will make it really tough for Ivies. Harvard and MIT are almost out of the question.</p>

6

<p>:( Does isef and published novel not help at all?</p>

7

<p>The novel could be a hook. It also helps a lot that he got a 790 on the English Lit SAT II, which is one of the hardest.</p>

8

<p>So what do you think should he apply or would it just be a waste of time?</p>

9

<p>Intel/USAMO are impressive awards. Math Level II is a little low, but idt it will be a significant factor. He should definitely apply – and he’s a minority??! He should definitely apply to these schools haha.</p>
