Decision: Accepted to Brown and the PLME!!!

Stats:
-SAT: M800/V760/W710
-SAT IIs: Math IC - 780/Chem - 790/Bio M - 770
-GPA: 4.516 Weighted
-Rank: 1/180
-Other stats: Maxed out of available high school curriculum junior year, so currently taking classes at local colleges and a few independent study classes at school. Taken nine AP exams, with 5's on all nine, will have at least eleven AP's at end of senior year. Taken a total of 5 college classes to date, one at Brown (not a summer class, a real class).

Subjective:
-Essays: Awesome? Started writing them back in April, finished them by June, and edited them up until application was sent in.
-Teacher Recs: No idea, but they got me in...
-Counselor Rec: Again, no clue.
-Hook (if any): First from school to apply to program, probably first in school for all academic honors. Legacy (though, only a graduate school alumnus).

Location/Person:
-School Type: Public
-Ethnicity: Chinese
-Gender: M

Other Factors: Personally sought out internships, and ended up gaining experience in three separate ones with a pediatrician, allergist, and in a hematology lab. Dunno how many hours total. Siemens Award for Advanced Placement, National AP Scholar, AP Scholar with Distinction. National Merit Semi. NHS VP. Competitive swimming freshmen to junior year. Bunch of state awards.

General Comments: Happy beyond words.
