<p>Okay, you’re an Asian with extremely high scores, so here’s what I would emphasize to set you apart from all the other Asians with extremely high scores:</p>
<p>Your job since 9th grade
Your prestigious internship
The community service organization you founded
Your passions</p>
<p>You really need to communicate those things in your essays and on the supplements. If you do that effectively in a way that showcases your personality, you’ve got a really good shot for all the schools you mentioned, probably a low-reach. If you don’t do that effectively, you’re probably a mid-to-high reach.</p>
<p>You have a great chance at the schools you listed, not really because of the standardized test scores, because those are common, but more because of your extracurricular achievements. The research awards alone will help you immensely, but besides that, you’ve also done so many other things with your time. But then again, I’m only a high school graduate/college freshman, so you probably shouldn’t take my chancing too seriously :p.</p>
<p>ooo i mean’t like
1st quarter senior year i’m gonna end up with a 3.90, do you know what GPA range of the average accepted applicant to the ivies? </p>
<p>thankss! i really appreciate it
I like wharton because of the business environment, I"m actually going for Vagelos LSM because of my interested in both science and business.
Any other opinions?</p>
<p>so you only took 2 APs? Since you’re a senior I recommend you take A LOT more. Ivys look for about 7 or 8. Your SAT scores are great especially those 800 subject tests! Your ECs are good too because you do things that you want to do:) I admire that:)</p>
<p>hahaa I just took 7, but i didn’t get the scores back yet :/…
thanks
anybody else? be brutally honest pleasee, tear my application apart if you have to! :)</p>
<p>He’s making it up. Some schools only offer some AP’s. My school as a whole only offers 7 APs, and it’s physically impossible to take all of them. What he’s trying to say it “Ivies look for academic rigour,” which is true.</p>
