I recently wrote a satire on this. I said I earned a 2600 on the SAT too!! (Collegeboard rewarded me with 200 extra points because they thought I bubbled in prettily)

your location isn't good enough
you have to be a starving african baby whose parents were killed in Darfur

1/2189 isn't good enough- it has to be 1/ the world

your ap classes are too focused on history

your sat could be a little higher

and for your ec's,

president of the usa is overrated
it'd be good to be the president of the world(you would have to unite all of the countries by using those bees)
you would have a good shot then

however, i'd say you'd have to best shot if you became dean of harvard- people say it's a great ec

You still don't make the cut. You have to be the smartest person in the state. Otherwise, you have to be filthy rich. Or you could write a rather fluffy and phony essay to gain admission. Again, you won't make the cut.
