Wow you guys cannot be serioous, columbia as a high match? HYPS as slight reaches? First off, your EC's are just fine. Not spectacular, nor are they weak. The problem lies in the fact that 1) you're international, 2) you're asian(not putting an ethnicity won't matter bc. your last name will most likely give away your race anyway, and 3) Grades/ Test Scores are good, but you copped out by taking Korean as your 3rd SAT II. This won't be very good for Harvard and Princeton. So, here is my opinion:

-Dartmouth- high match
-Brown- high match
-Johns Hopkins-high match
-Washing Univ. in St. Louis-high match
-Duke- slight reach
-U Penn- slight reach
-Univ. Chicago (Early Action)- match (Depends on your essays and Recs)
-HYPS (oh, what the heck haha)- Harvard and Princeton No. Yale and Stanford are both reaches.
-Columbia- Reach

Joint Medical Program:
-HPME (Northwestern)- reach
-PLME (Brown)- reject
-Union/Albany- in
-RPI/Albany- in
-Boston Univ- match


Why not go to McGIll???????????????????? Tuition is so cheap for Canadians, and McGill is a top-rate medical university.

Oh and one more thing. Just submit your SAT.
