Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hi, I am a Canadian applicant, and since I know absolutely nothing about the American system of university application, I don't know where my stats will get me.</p>

<p>I applied to Harvard, Princeton, and Yale for their math & economics majors.</p>

<p>SAT I: M-800 V-760
SAT II: M IIC 800 Bio-E 800 Eng-W 750 (being hand scored at the moment)
GPA: 4.5 (Canadian) or 4.0 (American)
Misc: Chinese Male</p>

<p>EC:
Wilfrid Laurier National Stock Market Competition (National Champion)
Prefects' Council: Minister of Logistics
Speak Cantonese, read/write Chinese
Peer Tutor
Teacher's Assistant
Certificates of Distinction in University of Waterloo math contests
School's Honor Roll</p>

<p>Recommendations were excellent: one teacher talked about my talent in and love of math, and the other talked about my resourcefulness and how I dealt with setbacks during the stock market competition.</p>

<p>Also, I only took the SAT's once.</p>

<p>How are my chances?</p>

2

<p>Your chances are good.</p>

3

<p>I agree with tore but I hope you applied to other colleges.</p>

4

<p>Yes, I hope you did not apply to only HYP. Prepare to be shot down.</p>

5

<p>I applied to universities in Canada and in Hong Kong. I know that the Ivies are a long shot.</p>

6

<p>Well, HYP are long shots for basically everyone.</p>
