<p>@brassring:
I admit, I was rejected by CalPoly SLO, I do not know why (I had 2310 SAT Reasoning, 2190 SAT subject tests, 4.33 W and 4.0 UW, plus international physics olympiad 2007 silver medal winner) that happened. I am happy for Caltech though but am anxiously awaiting MIT’s and Stanford’s decision.</p>
<p>I am not trying to conjecture any attention, I am only sharing my dismal state with all of you guys.</p>
<p>Also, my school NEVER NEVER NEVER told me anything about the one year of visual/performing arts that I needed for going to a UC. I hate my counselors now, my parents want to sue them, but I should have paid more attention (how? I was only 2 months old in the country when I selected my courses for my lone school year in the US)</p>
