Oh wow! Yeah, I've taken just about every standardized test at your school. I know some sleepy hollow kids. Greg V.? Yeah, anyway! I almost moved last year to Ohio (my dad got a job out there) and I am about top of second decile bottom of first at Briarcliff and I found out that if I moved there I would have been top 5%. It's kinda annoying to be from such a competitive area =/

Indeed. And Greg is one of my best friends!

I would very much have liked to chance you, although Harvard is the only school on your list that I can actually recognize (I vaguely recall seeing your other ones somewhere... sorry ).

I'd say Harvard is a bit of a High Reach for you, even with the legacy.

This post is more of a courtesy bump -- better than nothing, right?

Harvard- Crapshoot.
Williams- Low reach (although, I can't really tell since you didn't post your scores lol)
Bard- Match.
I haven't heard of the other one .

You have awesome ECs good luck .
Chance me por favor...

I don't know much about the last few schools. : [ But I just wanted to let you know that your extracurricular involvement is really impressive! You plan on doing most of your activities for four years, so I can tell that you're not just trying to stack up a bunch of activities; you're really involved in these things.

Brown doesn't care very much about scores; they're very holistic. I could really see you getting in! For Harvard, Columbia, and Williams, though, you're going to need to score past a certain "threshold" to be considered for admission; same goes for Vassar and Wesleyan but I'd guess that their average scores are a bit lower. You've got more than a year to worry about your SAT, though, and everything else seems to be in good shape! Best of luck.

Your dancing and musical talent will be a great "hook" for these schools. Do you plan on submitting a music supplement?

I plan on sending piano, which is really the only musical instrument I care about, but I'm no concert pianist and I've never done competitions or whatever (mainly because I have stage fright).

And I have October and November for SATs and SAT IIs. LOL. Hooray for being a senior, now.

Oh, jk. I thought "grade" meant the year you were going into... and didn't realize that this was a few months old. XD

Well, that's still time. (:

Lol. I wrote that when I was still a Junior. But yea... It's... A little time.
