<p>Okay. I’ll be the first stats person, I guess. I got a 1960 SAT (my reading was quite low), and a 29 ACT (I guess this may have offset my dismal Reading score, since that was my highest portion in this). I have a 3.8 GPA. I know my recommendations were exemplary, because I get to know my teachers quite a lot. However, I think it was really my EC’s and essays that set me apart. I wrote about being a twin, and no longer hiding behind my sister’s shadow. I also come from an African background, so many of my characteristics portray my love of helping others and just giving back to the world, since I have seen firsthand where hard work can get you (from my parents). Congratulations “Space Duck”! I applied to MIT as well, but Regular Decision. :)</p>
