Community Service: Does a lot of comm serv with his mission group, came back from vancouver recently but I don’t know exactly how many hours.</p>

<p>could you guys chance him for the following: Rice University, The University of Texas at Austin, Harvard, Georgetown, University of Pennsylvania, UCLA, UC Berkeley, UNC Chapel Hill, Stanford</p>

<p>He has an excellent shot at all the schools you listed but Harvard, Penn and Stanford, which, due to his weak ECs, will probably be relative reaches.</p>

3

<p>In at UT Austin.</p>

4

<p>It’s a very top-heavy list for someone with such in-the-box ECs.</p>

5

<p>Yeah unless your friend has some major ECs you don’t know about…his chances at Harvard and UPenn are pretty slim</p>

6

<p>I completely agree with billabong.</p>

7

<p>He should get into all but Harvard and Stanford, which he does not have the CR score or ECs for.</p>

8

<p>^And btw his scores add up to a 2260. Typo?</p>

<p>Berkeley loves applicants with very high HS GPA, and it’s accepting more international students now than ever before. </p>

<p>I’d say you are a strong candidate for Berkeley L&S. Not sure for engineering, though, but your chances at Berkeley is higher than at H and Stanford.</p>
