Rejected:

Claremont McKenna College
Attending: UC BERKELEY....my #1 choice!
SAT: 1590/2400 (took it once)
ACT Composite: 24 (took twice)...I am not a good test taker, and I am glad colleges don't put an emphasis on that.
Cumulative GPA: 4.2-4.3, in top 5% of my class!
Finally, the college stress that has been looming over us for the 4+ years is over! 
Good luck and congrats to all!

@skateboarder: what would you have been satisfied with? Brown? (I honestly think Duke was the best school you applied to and you got in there but I guess it comes down to fit)

And this with an ACT of 36, SAT of 2370, and a GPA (weighted) of 4.86.
Not to complain, because Dartmouth is my dream school, but it would have been a nice ego boost to get accepted somewhere else...

| I feel a bit gypped but there's nothing I can/could do.
Rank: 5/60 (we didn't send a single person to an Ivy this year, our Val is going to Swarthmore (which is great) and our Sal is going to Holy Cross (he cheated his way through HS (karma's a *****)) I have the integrity not to cheat.
GPA: 3.9UW/4.XW
SAT: 2260 (790M, 700R, 770W) ACT: 32 (didn't send)
SAT IIs: 800 Bio E/M, 780 Math II, 780 Chem, 710 Math I (haha)
I basically ran my HS. EIC of newspaper, various math/science awards, leadership was not lacking on my app.
