Congratulations for your wonderful profile! You are the kind of student that a general American colleges looking for. The U.S. colleges do not need so many study nerds who never participate cultural events and community services. So you are really in good shape, with your really decent score on SAT and really wonderful score on TOEFL. I think your overal profile puts your standing really abover average. Since you are from China, the general American colleges expect your TOEFL more than SAT since they can undersand that students from China will face some difficulties in SAT. So do not worry too much about SAT.

Please try more schools below No. 50 since many of my friends really obtain perfect full scores on SAT and TOEFL and also international gold medal on Science and Math Olymiads before they have the opportunities to be enrolled in top Ivy League universities. There are just so many top students all over China, Malaysica, Singapore, Indonesia, Nepal, India, African America, ect. I encourage you to apply more schools between No.50 to No. 150 to really put you in good shape.

Please keep an open mind. The universities between 50 and 150 are really also top universities. Good luck on pursuing your academics and do not think the top 50 Universities are the only place worthwhile to go

Sincerely,
