<p>hello folks. i am doing this just for fun (as i have one and a half year time until i have to go through the infamous application process)…but still. opinions will be honored!</p>
<p>i am currently attending a private all-girls school in Austria. i am (forcibly) taking twelve different courses. all of those are (as my teacher told me) equivalent to AP courses.
i get straight As in every subject (apart from PE,…but i’ll exclude that because i think its not a subject but a form of torture :P) i am top 2% of 150 and the best student in my class- 1/20.</p>
<p>additional stuff i have done (i do not really like the word extracurricular activities…it freaks me out)
- economy course
- law course
- social week
- piano
- choir</p>
<p>additional stuff i will do:
- take university courses here
- japanese course
- russian course
- ancient greek (By self-study)
- college-level mathematics (By self-study)…just for fun. </p>
<p>competitions i have participated in:
-language competition (top 4 of the country)
-maths (second place)
-latin (this autumn)</p>
<p>i plan on taking the SAT. it doesnt seem to be too difficult (i have a practice exam book at home and the questions are rather simple?)</p>
<p>i know this doesnt tell you much, but i am really intelligent. no, and not conceited at all
…i just know what i can and what i can’t do (i can’t turn a somersault). i sometimes solve problems in maths very very fast and then my teacher has to think about five minutes about what i did and why i did it. i also learn very fast etc etc.
so hm.
i have a few questions.</p>
<p>when i apply to a college/university in the US, can i major in more than two subjects?</p>
<p>i’d like to become a mathematican, astrophysicist and journalist. what courses should i take for being qualified to work as the latter?</p>
<p>would i have chances when i applying to the ivy league? (actually, if you tell me No, i’d still try.)</p>
<p>forgive me for spelling mistakes.</p>
