<p>kind of hard to say when you dont have test scores out yet</p>

<p>also what are you looking to major in</p>

<p>thanks
yea… i dont have test score yet but what do you think about my ECs and stats?
And I’m planning to major international relations.
Maybe political science but… probably international relations.</p>

<p>ECs look somewhat focused on the major, so I guess that’s good. still hard to say without the rest of the stuff though</p>

<p>your involvement and committment to theatre is very good. maybe you should look at getting a leadership position in one of your other ecs like Model UN. Also, since your school doesnt offer that many APs, take all of them or as much as you can. as long as you think you can handle it</p>

6

<p>get 800s on all your SAT IIs and you’ll have a shot. as of now id say its soso… the grade seems a bit low, definitely raise it to at least 93, sat is average for korean asian.</p>
