<p>Your decreasing GPA and overall GPA will hurt a bit but since you are from such a prestigious private school it is hard to tell how much of that GPA is excused. </p>

<p>The 650 CR isn't helpful either but your overall SAT score is pretty good. Being international is also not as helpful (there are a lot of internationals applying to CMU). Are you an American citizen? Your E.C's are quite good but compared to a lot of incoming students I'd focus on more leadership skills/business awards/competitions.</p>

<p>Overall I'd say it is a reach to even a high reach(but this depends on how prestigious your high school is viewed. I have a lot of friends from the prestigious Stuy high school and about a 90+ gets you into HSS and quite a bit higher will get you into Tepper). Tepper had a 19.23% acceptance rate last year and the number of applicants is expected to increase. </p>

<p>Anyways, ED will probably increase your chances a lot though. Try to raise your SAT scores because not only will something like a 780/780/etc. look good but it will also show that your high school really is prestigious and that your grades are not representative of your quality as a student compared to the average American high school student.</p>
