Gender: M
State or Country: British Columbia, Canada & Miaoli, Taiwan
SAT (M:CR:W) or ACT: 780-680-730 (2190)
SAT II scores: 800 MathII, 760 Biology, 800 Chinese with Listening, 710 Chemistry
GPA (W or UW?): I don’t know… IB Predicted 40/45, but 90% average (school is hard). GPA: N/A Rank: Top 3%
Hooks?:
*Provincial-level swimmer? (not good enough for being an athlete - useless)
*1/2 Taiwanese Aboriginal (probably the first Atayal to apply for Stanford)? (but Asian nonetheless - useless)
*Founder of Varsity Swim Team? Tons of Swimming awards? (again, not good enough - useless)
*Grew up in the traditional countryside of Taiwan? (so what… tons of people grew up in the countryside - useless)
*Wish to major in international and rural development/STS? (a lot of people do this - useless)
*Immigrated to Canada 4.5 years ago? (a lot of people are immigrants in British Columbia - useless)
*TOEFL 115/120? (I see people with 118 and 120 - useless)
*Creative “Why Stanford” essay - about making a snowman… (=.=|||)? (a lot of people’s essays are creative - useless)
*Not applying for financial aid? (so are 900 others - useless)
- Long list of piano awards and a non-profit program to promote music awareness among children in poverty (missed the supplemental CD deadline, and not national level - useless)</p>
<p>Sum = Rejection. I am not going to give myself too much expectation and disappoint. My SAT scores are too low, and a genius at my school with 2300+ with tons, tons, tons of activities and research applied (for FA though); I probably have very little chance. I only have youth leader, swimming and piano.</p>
