<p>Hi everyone,</p>
<p>I am going to be applying to Cornell, NYU and UChicago. UChicago is my first choice. </p>
<p>School: Upper Canada College (private school in Toronto Canada)
IB Student
Asian Male</p>
<p>I have written it twice, and kind of freaked out on the Writing / Critical Reading sections the first time</p>
<p>SAT:
M 790
CR 570
W 570</p>
<p>I haven't received batch 2 of results, but I am hoping for ~650 in CR and W which is on par with my practice tests.</p>
<p>SAT IIs (Dec 2006)</p>
<p>Math IIC
Chem</p>
<p>SATII havent taken them yet
I expect about 780-800 on math IIC
and idk 750+ on chem and bio</p>
<p>Average: 94.5% (we don't get GPAs)</p>
<p>IB:</p>
<p>HL English A1 5+
HL Chemistry 6+
HL Physics 6+
SL Math 7
SL Economics 7
SL Spanish 6</p>
<p>This is pretty much the hardest arrangement of IB subjects you can take. The only thing that would make it harder would be taking HL Math and SL English. </p>
<p>Recs:
I currently have 4 teachers enthusiastically willing to write me recommendations. All of them are excellent writers. The recs should be excellent. </p>
