<p>What Pton Legacies got accepted ed? Stats?</p>
<p>I did!</p>
<p>Blatantly copy+pasted from the ED thread:
Stats:
SAT: 740 M/800 V
SAT II: 800 Biology (Molecular emphasis), 800 Writing, 800 Math IIC
GPA: 4.2
Rank: top 15%–I’m not sure how precisely my school reports class rank
Other Stats: National Merit Semi-Finalist; AP Scholar with Distinction</p>
<p>Subjective:
Essays: Kinda lame. But I am hypercritical and abhor soul-searching self-revelatory writing, so I hate them on principle rather than because they are inherently bad.
Teacher Recs: Awesome. I love my teachers and they are much better at talking about me than I am.
Counselor Rec: Quite good I think.
Hook: Parents went there. I hate this fact.</p>
<p>Location/Personal:
State or Country: California
School Type: Private
Ethnicity: Anathema (AKA didn’t check the box)
Gender: Female
Degree: AB (math or maybe an interdisciplinary major, possibly a certificate in linguistics or intelligent systems)
Major Strength/Weakness: Strength–psychotically obsessed with learning; Weakness–Class rank/GPA (my school is competitive to the point at which GPA ceases to be a good indicator of desire/capacity to learn)</p>
<p>Other Factors: I think I’m the only one from my school who applied early to Princeton.</p>
<p>Anathema??</p>
<p>why didn’t you check the box?</p>
<p>It said optional, and I didn’t consider it relevant.</p>
