<p>out of the schools I know,
Amherst- toss up
Brown- only God knows
McGill- probably
Good job on the SAT. I've heard of perfect math scores, but perfect CR, that takes skill. Make sure you have your safeties. Good job overall and good luck</p>

<p>thanks for the opinions. haha amherst, i visted and talked to the dean and he said "it's a total crapshoot". gotta love small schools. </p>

<p>thank you! i am very happy about CR. math, it's just silly that i dont do well! i have been in double accl. math for 5 years now and i'm a junior in AP calc. the problem is that i have this bizarre urge to use integrals and matrixes every time i sit down to take it, instead of just plugging in the stupid numbers haha. i actually used implicit differentiation on the SAT this year, although in my defense, it took 4 seconds and the way they wanted would have taken a minute and i got it right. but you get my drift...</p>
