3

<p>your stats are quite impressive i must say</p>

<p>especially the co-author on a nature published paper, now thats legit</p>

<p>i would say you have a very good chance at getting in, just make sure you polish up those essays and ask a lot of people to read them</p>

4

<p>It looks good, and I'll say you'll get in if you do ED, but don't you want to try other ivys, like Harvard and Yale?</p>

5

<p>what is your paper about?</p>

6

<p>co-author of a paper being published in Nature plus all of that other stuff (600+ volunteer hours wow)? I think most colleges would be happy to accept you and you might want to consider HYPSM. This is assuming you're not lying of course.</p>
