<p>…now I just need assurance (or not) ;)</p>
<p>Already submitted the application, had the interview, etc etc</p>

SAT II: Math IC: 800, Math IIC: 800, Chem: 800, Chinese: 800</p>
<p>GPA: 10.54/11.0
disclaimer about the GPA: my school is pretty damn competitive. and one of those feeders schools. and this GPA is one of the top 9 in class even though it translates into something like 3.000 on a 4.0 scale</p>
<p>ECs:
-Piano: 1st place state competition, plays chamber music, etc etc
-EiC of news publication (we publish 8 pages weekly)
-head of big sib little sib, service club
-founded this service club for hunger/poverty
-on the board for school’s service organization (manages 500+ students)
-head of pilates club (thats right…)
-peer tutor, student tech, tour guide, all that good stuff</p>
<p>Essays: I write good 
but seriously, I’m a published writer and the personal essay was pretty good imo</p>
<p>Interview: deadly dull. not my fault either</p>
<p>Teacher Recs: my teachers like to gush</p>
<p>Reason I want to go to Harvard? Because they have the best East Asian Studies program EVER. no competition.</p>
<p>so CHANCE ME</p>
<p>p.s. if anyone cares, I’m not one of those people who applied EA to yale and now is looking at harvard. this isn’t between Harvard and Yale or some other ivy. It’s more like Harvard and then University of Indiana (full ride)</p>
