<p>I’m not sure why people are talking about international when OP said he was a US citizen, even if he was an international, it would not help his chances at all. Applying to US schools from Asia is very difficult. But anyways, top colleges usually just take the very top Asian students (since it’s an ORM). With a low SAT score, 600s on two subject tests (assuming you’re reporting them), and a C in a class, it will be difficult for you to get into Stanford, Cornell, UCB, UCLA, Northwestern, and USC. However, your ECs are interesting and might give you some help (even though you don’t have many). Good luck! </p>
