You haven't taken any tests yet in your senior year are you're "expecting" 800s? You might be suprised at what you get - ask us again when you take them.

Those scores are quite impressive. I'd hazard a guess that you have a very good chance, since they really don't calculate your freshman year in GPA and it sounds like you're applying for H&SS, which can be easier to get in to. You don't sound like a stupid asian kid to me, you should have more confidence, bud. Good luck.
