<p>Sounds like me. Just switch “Japanese” with “White.”</p>

<p>Wow, how old are you? I am not sure if after a few years out of high school that your SAT scores will count. I know in california after 7 years your community college records restart (like you cannot apply to a UC and say…this is what I took 12 years ago!). Have you taken anything else since then?</p>

4

<p>Then again, I am not sure about anything else other than UC’s lol. But what I am saying if it has been too long since you have been out of high school, you will have less of a chance to get into a IVY league vs someone who has been out of school for a while and not taken ANY Community College courses. Also, asians are NOT URM… I think URM mainly are african american, hispanic, etc. I may be wrong, though, but I know a there is a LARGE majority of Asians in all schools</p>

<p>^
I’m still in high school. I’m a senior. </p>

<p>I’ve solved all of these cases during high school or before. Mostly murders, but some robberies and kidnappings as well.</p>

<p>When I read the title I thought “Watson!”</p>

<p>I’m almost positive almost all of that is made up</p>

<p>Assuming this is true you are in. </p>

<p>Oh wait I looked at some of your older chances. One of them is completely made up, and my guess it’s this one. This is one of the better made up chance threads I’ve seen, well played</p>

<p>It’s Sherlock Holmes in Japan all over again…</p>

<p>also, did the above user even read the whole post :P?</p>

8

<p>You may have a chance if you retake those 2 AP 4’s and get your SAT’s up. 800’s aren’t enough anymore</p>

<p>I did, but it’s rude to accuse of trolling before you at least look at other posts.</p>

<p>Innocent until proven ■■■■■.</p>

<p>His other posts are fun reads too; I recommend them if you want some laughs :P</p>

Ah, my apologies. I am visiting the U.S. to tail an American actress whom I suspect of secretly being a criminal. In my spare time, I decided to use the account of an acquaintance of mine.</p>

11

<p>this is obviously fake. 1000 cases=100 a year since you were 8 years old. one every three days</p>

12

<p>But he solved several at a time with his trusty Great Dane</p>

13

<p>You suspect this actress is a criminal? I can assure you she is–all involved in theatre are scum.</p>

14

<p>Oh hello there, Hattori kun, but I’m afraid Shinichi took your spot.</p>

15

<p>^My god, I get that reference.</p>

16

<p>I thought high school detectives liked to volunteer… haha</p>

17

<p>^^I love that series!</p>

18

<p>Of course teachers think you are too arrogant. I knew you were an arrogant one before I even read that.
Anyway, you do have a chance at Harvard. You seem like quite an interesting guy.</p>

19

<p>lol you figured out who killed your counselor’s son? I call trolling on this one also</p>

20

<p>Especially this:</p>

<p>Interview: My interviewer was murdered somehow during the interview, but I solved the case and got in the newspaper.</p>

<p>LOL</p>
