As an international student, where would i have a reasonable chance?

<p>I'm a student in England, and i had a pipe dream about going to America for university, but then i sat the ACT last month and scored 34 (English:36, Maths:34, Reading:32, Science:33, Writing:08), and now i think it's a more realistic possibility. I achieved 5 A<em>s, 6As, and 2Bs at GCSE, and i'm studying Maths, Further Maths, Physics, English Language and History at A-level, one of only two students in my school to do 5 a-levels, and predicted A/A</em> in all of them. In terms of extra-curricular, i'm currently studying grade 7 drums and have played in the school band a few times. I won the school debate, i'm part of the school forum, and i was treasurer of a team of 8 students who raised £7,000 for a local charity in a inter-school competition, which broke the past record amount raised. I've volunteered as a tutor and at another local charity for fundraising in the past. I'm quite worried my ECs aren't great in comparison to a lot of American students, but i'd like to know if i have a chance at good U.S universities, and where i should consider applying with an interest in studying something along the lines of economics or politics. I'd also be the first student in my family to attend university, will this have a favorable impact? Thanks for the help. </p>

<p>Oh and i’ve been accepted to attend an economics summer school at St. Johns College, Cambridge in the summer, so hopefully that would also help my application.</p>

<p>Your Chances are good at Top US colleges. Take my word!</p>

<p>Thanks! Any recommendations as to where i should look into further? </p>

<p>Write fantastic essays! Adcoms know that international students have much less resources outside the school. So your EC’s are not a problem.</p>
