<p>Where in India are you? I was there last year....</p>

<p>I'm from Bangalore, a beautiful city in South India, also referred to as the 'IT capital of Asia' and 'The Garden City'.
Anyways, what do you think of my chances at Yale</p>

<p>Everything looks to be in order. You're a pretty strong applicant. SAT verbal and writing are a little on the low side. Are you doing IB's, A Levels, or something else? You'll need those standardized tests. Also make sure you line up stellar essays and letters of recommendation. You're definitely qualified, though.</p>

<p>On a side note, I was at Kodaikanal International School last year. Went down to Bangalore on a couple of occasions.....probably my favorite city in India. :)</p>

<p>Just remember that your chances are substantially higher at yale if you apply early. This is true for all of the schools you posted your chances on, so pick wisely (I know it must be hard being an international student but visiting is the best option).</p>
