<p>with a 150 AMC, you’ll get into MIT hands down.</p>

<p>Wow. I really don’t think that you will have a problem getting into most of these schools. You are really incredible, but its important to make sure that you have some time to yourself or sometime to do something you love…don’t kill yourself with schoolwork and start to lack personality. But I doubt that is a problem for you , you look pretty well rounded. Good luck!</p>

<p>Chance me back? :)</p>

It’s not that we missed it, it’s just that it’s overshadowed a whole lot by your math accomplishments. A sport is always a good thing to have, but sometimes things that show your creativity are even better (being a writer, yearbook editor, actor, musician… whatever).
By the way, I normally don’t chance people, and I should point out that no one - NO ONE - can give you an accurate chance at any school because they haven’t seen your application, recommendations, or the broader applicant pool (though you summarized them, it doesn’t really help us), but seeing as you’re so strong academically, at least a few of the schools on your list will be attracted enough by your character to admit you. So it’s a fair chance you’ll get into several, but I can’t tell you which (no one can.)
That said, you’re stronger than a lot of applicants I’ve seen (myself included.)</p>

<p>

Nope. </p>

<p>Good luck at wherever you’re applying.</p>

<p>So I got a 800 on my Physics SAT retest in January. Here is my question:</p>

<p>What do I do? Most of the schools to which I applied do NOT accept a January test date. Do I sent it anyway? Will they look?</p>

25

<p>So, I retook the ACT in February, and the SATII in Physics in January and received a 35 (32 reading), and 800, respectively.</p>

<p>Does anyone think that the schools to which I applied will see/consider these new scores (if they are after the deadline they request)?</p>

<p>Results:</p>

<p>Accepted: MIT, Stanford, Yale, UCB, Dartmouth, Brown, Penn, Chicago, Caltech
Rejected: Harvard, Princeton</p>

<p>^Holy crap, congrats on MIT, Stanford, and Yale…but why would Harvard and Princeton reject you??? Makes no sense to deny a math genius! Anyway, good luck!!!</p>

<p>Excellent job dude.</p>
