You do realize you’re highly recommended to have three SAT II’s, right?

Other than that, all I have to say is that the standardized testing is extremely low for an Asian Male, and the EC’s are somewhat generic.

My SAT is too low?

4

Chem is too low. AP Scores are frankly, terrible (but luckily you don’t have to send them or mention them in the Supplemental app.).

1500 is below-average for an Asian applying to a top 10 business school. Unless you have some hook or extraordinary EC, I don’t know if anything will be able to overcome that.

Scores put you through the door. They’re not the most important part of your application, although your SAT II’s are a bit low.
