<p>very impressive dr. T…I think you have great chances of all of those schools. my chinese mother would kill for a son with your academic prestige</p>
<p>You’re AP’s/GPA are really impressive.
Can you get your SAT’s (writing/CR) up a little before applying? It would help if you had leadership in those extracurrics, but I think the fact that you’ve lived in so many different countries helps you A LOT. Colleges love that stuff.
Safety: Penn State, BU

<p>i dont see why you would not be in a range for all these schools. </p>
<p>for stanford and princeton, you would be in less than 25% of last years freshman’s SAT score but this is your third language (if im right) and you have interesitng ECs.
you have lived in 3 places and speak 3 languages fluently. when you are compared to other international students, you would stand out significantly with an engaging essay and sports ability.</p>
