<p>Im going to be real methodical in my evaluation:</p>
<p>GPA - It should be 3.8+, a 3.62 with the courseload you describe is nowhere near competitive</p>
<p>SAT - You need at least a 1450...study up these next two weeks, get lots of sleep, and take teh Dec 4th SATs</p>
<p>SAT IIs - You cant have anything below a 700, and I would argue you need scores above 730 to be competitive</p>
<p>Class Rank - You aren;t int he top 10 or even 15% percent of your class, you just barely eke in to the top 25%</p>
<p>Extracurriculars - This is definitley your weakest region - you need more, and you need to have doen phenomenal things in them if you were only going to do two. (tennis and math club). Are you captain of these ECs? President of Math Club? </p>
<p>Your AP courseload is about average, and your performance on the tests, especially the AP Language score, will hurt you (unless you just don't write that test down on the application)</p>
<p>Your attempt at cleverness by not checking the asian/pacific islander box does you no good - the admissions officers still know your race through your SAT score report and also by your last name, Choi.</p>
<p>Overall, the schools you are applying to are all severe reaches for you, and your performance on the AP language exam leads me to believe you are not a superior essay-writer, taking you out of contention for the "I do crappy in school but I'm a prolific writer" hook on the application. I would recommend taking a look at some second-tier schools, and applying to those and maybe one or two ivies for kicks and giggles - chances are you won't get into them.</p>
<p>it's nick from symphony... no offense... but i don't think any of these schools are matches especially with a 3.62, i hope that's UW, but even so, u need a heavier courseload, maybe with a 7 or 8 ap's and the rest honors that's ok, but ...</p>
<p>excuse me, i spoke too soon, u do have 8 ap's, but even with that... i think ur still a reach, unless ur weighted gpa is amazing, which it doesn't seem to be</p>
<p>On another note, so many things factor into the admissions process. </p>
<ol>
<li>Scores (As long as you do "ok"...which is a 1400+ and an avg. of 700+, you are going into committee...seriously, CC'ers, I think, judge by "auto-admits", which only takes up 10% of the applicant pool. The "avg." ivy stats, which, you are below, can take your application into committee.)</li>
<li>Location. (If you are on the East Coast...eh....that's kinda bad.)</li>
<li>Essays. (Again, if you are a great writer, great, but keep in mind that these adcoms read literally HUNDREDS/THOUSANDS of essays...a "great" essay...is a very rare thing. Great essays, are delicacies.)</li>
<li>Rank. (This is actually one of the most important things in admissions. Because, most schools rank by weighting grades. Which means, there must be a reason why you are ranked so low....by ivy standards..yes...you are ranked low.)</li>
<li>ECs. (Anything more interesting? I see a lot of CC'ers brag about "great" EC while the ECs themselves are absolutely typical. "Amnesty International, ModelUN, NHS, blah blah blah..."...a dime a dozen...it's all about dedication, and if you can find some way to convince an adcom that Math Club has changed your life, or how you have done something absolutely extrodinary with Math Club and Tennis...ehh...it ain't pretty).</li>
