<p>Decent Essay about my fund raiser to clean up the Streets of Houston...</p>

<p>I'm A 1st generation Chinese boy. Parents immigrated, and do not think I done enough (especially in the EC department) to get into an Ivy. I live in Texas, and my Parents want me to stay close to home.</p>

<p>I have applied to:
Texas-Austin (I'm informed that this is a reach for me)
Texas A&M
Baylor
Texas Tech
Sam Houston State
U of Houston</p>

<p>My out of state options are:
East Michigan
Iowa
Georgia Tech
Duke (major reach!!)
San Jose St.
Cincinatti
UMass</p>

<p>Most seem like reaches though (especially Duke).</p>

<p>I did manage to sneak in an applicatation to Yale, Cornell, and Columbia. I don't think I'll make it though, and if my parents found out, they'd probably discourage it. They'd be overjoyed if I made it, though. What are my chances?</p>

<p>THANKS!!! ALOT =)!! but i still don't know... is anyone else as confident as mdg? or as discouraging as my parents =(. lol, it's alright though.</p>

6

<p>yeah. . i wouldn't be worried at all if I were you.. a 1580, great grades and alot of ec's-- you'd get in anywhere..I wish I had stats like that . . lol</p>

<p>you guys are so confident!! yay!!! lol, i wish you guys were my parents!!! haha!!! you guys are really nice i'm glad i joined this site. any more posts???</p>

8

<p>come on let's bump it here!!! any suggestions for colleges?!! this is really fun!! respons ASAP!! lol</p>

<p>Why are you even posting? You know your stats are good enough. But then again, bragging on college forums is pretty cool.</p>

<p>I thought my stats were good enough, but that's not what my parents think. They're really demanding. I told them we should seek out a college counselor, and they got an old friend of there's an Asian college counselor. He discouraged even applying to any Ivy's, and so I was forbade to. I searched the Internet to find a forum just like this, to get a myraid of comments that encourage me to apply. This way, I can apply to all the Ivy's and then me and my parent's can decide which I would go to (if I get in). I don't mean to brag, but i just really would like to go to an Ivy league college without my parents frowning upon my appliance. Thanks for all your great comments and keep them coming!!</p>

<p>Velocity, you have good stats, but please stop pretending to have graduated from various schools. You have claimed that you are a graduate of Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Amherst, and Dartmouth.</p>

<p>Velocity is not a 1960 graduate of Boston as well (<a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?p=180786&posted=1%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?p=180786&posted=1&lt;/a&gt;). In another thread he made a remark that he was an NYU graduate and tried to persuade a student to not apply to NYU.</p>

<p>Administrators: Suspend or block velocity as he or she have lied about their identities twice and haven't helped in other people's thread.</p>
