<p>Enough with the AA discussion guys. Yes it’s ridiculous, but it’s not going to change anytime, and it’s certainly not the OP’s fault.</p>
<p>grc, your chances are very good. As somebody else mentioned, applications to HYP will probably make you a happy guy by April 1. To be blunt, you’re a mildly compelling candidate for HYP with a major boost from your ethnicity. You have great SATs (but where are your subject tests?), good GPA (class rank? top 1-2% is good), and good rigor of schedule (another AP in the mix would have been very impressive). Your ECs are a little difficult to determine right now - how good are you at track/CC? State rankings, etc. might give that particular activity a little more meat. How much of an involvement is this “class President?”</p>
