<p>ooh yay! i cube too. just as a hobby tho, altho i do know people who also went to the championships. what sorts do you do? i usually stick with regular 4x4's.</p>

<p>poo. most of those schools are hard to determine, such a crapshoot...but i suppose i can guess anyway:</p>

Cornell, JHU, Duke, Wharton, Bunches of UCs</p>

<p>Deferred/Waitlist:
Stanford, Yale</p>

<p>UCB/UCLA: Safe Match
UCSD: Safety
UCI: Safety
UCR: Super Safety</p>

<p>You'll get into everything except Harvard and Princeton.
My two cents.</p>

5

<p>u got in everywhere because ur just so good...no...jk...y would anyone waste their time like this?</p>

6

<p>you're the typical asian...</p>

<p>competition is tough...</p>

<p>If you had a mediocre essay, you probably didn't get into Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, or Wharton. Might have gotten in to Yale EA, but since nothing there is truly fascinating or stellar, and good grades can only take you so far, I'm going to say deferred then waitlisted.</p>

<p>You probably were in at John Hopkins and Cornell, though it isn't garuanteed. Duke too.</p>

<p>And you definitely got into all of the UC's...no doubt about that one. You most certainly got into Riverside, since you are in the top 5% of your class.</p>

11

<p>Berkeley: match/safe match
UCLA: match/safe match
UCSD: safe match</p>

<p>The rest of UC's are safeties. I believe you also have an excellent shot at getting into atleast one of the ultra elites privates you listed.</p>

<p>In: All the UC's, John Hopkins, Cornell, Duke, Wharton</p>

<p>Harvard REJECTED

Princeton REJECTED
Stanford REJECTED
Wharton UPENN ACCEPTED
Johns Hopkins ACCEPTED
Cornell ACCEPTED
Duke ACCEPTED
UC Berkeley ACCEPTED
UC LA ACCEPTED
UC SD ACCEPTED
UC Irvine ACCEPTED
UC Riverside ACCEPTED</p>

<p>I'm also going to go out on a limb and say you also applied to Brown and were accepted.</p>

15

<p>Wow must have been really tough to decide. For me the decision would have been between Wharton and Duke...no idea which I'd pick though.</p>

16

<p>i'm pretty confused... isn't Siemen's Westinghouse very prestigious?</p>

17

<p>Bobert: Yeah, it really IS super prestigious.</p>

18

<p>then why didn't the OP get into the HYPS league? he had the numbers and ECs. the super prestige should get him in, right?</p>

19

<p>Hmm, personally, I would say that he could get into HYPS...but it depends on how far he went in Siemens Westinghouse. Also, I believe he said his essays were "mediocre"? </p>

<p>I dunno, I guess we'll find out where he got in when he posts the answers! :D</p>
