OK, I’ll give in to the urge to ask for chances… The temptation is too great.

GPA: 3.9 unweighted
SAT: 730m 730cr 750 w
SAT2: 780 math2, 770 french
AP: computer science AB 5, calculus BC 5, biology 4 (note, my school has no AP classes)

hook: Computer science. I’ve taken 6 computer science courses (for credit) at an Ivy league and coauthored several published papers in computer science. I’ve presented my research at several conferences and symposia around the country.

I attended the research science institute at MIT.

I’m a semifinalist at siemens.

Essays are pretty good. Recs should be good (two from computer science professors, one from a math teacher).

I’ve also completed all courses in two languages (french and german) at my high school, and have consistently taken 9 classes per semester.

I’m a caucasian male, and applying early action to Stanford.
