<p>its hard to give chances with no "real" numbers</p>

3

<p>sorry, im just trying to get like a preliminary opinion.
lets just assume that those numbers are "real", if tats aight.</p>

4

<p>Good shot at all of these: "duke, rice, upenn, etc"
Depends on your essays, overall app overview, and E.C interpretation. Good luck!!</p>

<p>sorry man. to be blatantly honest, i dont think you have a shot at any of these schools. In fact, judging by your post, i would have to say that in real life you are probably an ugly, smelly, and overall a worthless individual(and i bet you suck at the violin too). if you want a chance at any of these schools, change your name; "chris chang" sounds way too gay.</p>

<p>thanks for the input bob. ahem. </p>

<p>to clarify the vague college descriptions:
duke, rice, upenn, stanford, harvard, princeton</p>

7

<p>am i on the right path at least? with me being a second semester junior, there isnt much time left to change anything</p>

8

<p>are you a minority?</p>

<p>ORM i'd assume.</p>
