Curiousity

So the person I am in Calc BC with wants to go to Cal Tech. He is ridiculously good at math, but is lazy. His SAT was 460, 800, 570, and he got a four on the Calc AB test (without a single bit of studying). His GPA is a 3.4 UW/3.5W. Does he have any chance of making it in?

It doesn't matter how smart you are if you're too lazy to accomplish anything.
