<p>a year later i started a Venture Capital company in China, which didn't run really well, but we did build a new school system for poor kids :P Well still in develop......</p>

<p>So I came back from all work, and took my sats 1860 thats all i got!!! its pretty low!!!!</p>

<p>and My transcript is all messed up but somehow i got a 4.6 as my GPa from all 4 high schools, i only have 8 aps cuz i didn't even have my senior year.</p>

<p>wut else... lets see...</p>

<p>Venture Capital company (we even have a branch in India) we have in China is a really new ideas which can only be applid in China's econ condition, but it didn't run really well, still running tho, however we did build a new school system for poor people!! (which i architected)</p>

<p>I am going to apply for patents for two of my proposal and ideas in China.</p>

<p>one more thing I work average 13 to 15 hours per day for Mon, Wed, Thurs (thats one of the reason i am going to college :O )</p>

<p>No one is answering because your scores make most schools on your list unrealistic.</p>

what's wrong with his scores?</p>

<h1>1 in his class, 1860 SATs, unique ECs. those don't take him out of the running for any of those schools.</h1>

10

<p>harvard</p>

<p>duke</p>

<p>northwestern</p>

<p>Uchicago</p>

<p>University of Virginia</p>

<p>Those aren't worth applying to.</p>

11

<p>thanks for the input!!! so wut my chance at UM?</p>

12

<p>I agree with blu, he has some nice EC's, good grades, good class rank, low sat for those schools but nothing that would immediately destroy him, and u have a good shot at UM, good luck XD, thats where I wanna go too!</p>

13

<p>I have to agree with lllklll about not applying to those schools, if you're applying to NYU for business, then you don't really stand a chance there (Stern is very selective), UMich looks like a good shot for you, but that's about it.</p>

14

<p>I'm sorry, but I must respectfully disagree with the posts above me. I think you should apply to all of those schools. If you have enough drive to write passionate essays explaining why you want to go to that school, please do it. Test scores do NOT define you. All top schools look at applicants holistically, if you have something that stands out, they will offer you admission. You're not rejected because your scores are too low, you're rejected because you're not the right fit for the school. The people on this forum have no clue how adcoms work, so.. don't be put off by anything you see on these forums. 2400s are rejected from top schools, obviously SATs don't make anyone a shoo-in.</p>

<p>I applied NYU for business, but I didn't mention in my apps the company I setup is making a deal with NYU end investment board for their involvement in some project in China (I am not the person making the deal, this is not my idea either). Some how NYU has a green light through CPC (i don't know how they got it but its supposed to be legal), so they can operate in "non-regulated-zones" in China, some kind of non WTC regulated or whatever...... TMI but i voted NO againt the proposal but i guess they ignored my vote... shi* so i just have a bad impression on NYU even tho i applied lol</p>

16

<p>Easy school.</p>

17

<p>is Syracuse University a good match for me?</p>

18

<p>yes I would say it is XD</p>

19

<p>Thanks man, I really want to go to UM too lol, the perferadmit for Ross. I sent in two of my patent pending business models to them hopefully it will get there before they decided to kill me with the SAT lol.</p>
