| I'd say anything more than three SAT IIs is overkill--and take the ones you want to, don't bother taking lit, for example, if you hate reading.
Your SAT I and strength of transcript are ultimately the most important. GPA is very relative--from what I've heard about applications recently, they'll look at it, but more in terms of the classes you took and your class rank.
If you apply to Arts and Sciences the essay is especially important. ECs won't get you in, they only reinforce it. So choose one or two and really commit to them. |
