Below average SAT score

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hi guys, im an international student taking A levels and my SAT was bad
i got 1500 composite SAT
(CR : 480 , Math:620, Wr: 400)</p>

<p>I took ielts and i got a band 7.5</p>

<p>I hope u guys can chance me based on my unis preference</p>

<p>UC San Diego
UC Santa Barbara
Penn State
Uni of minnesota Twin Cities
Uni of Winsconsin Madison
Uni of Washigton at Seattle </p>

<p>Im a sponsored student so i guess i have no trouble with the fees and such.
i joined lots of extracurricular activities such as in national level competition, i compete in
taekwondo, youth forum, debate, science research and i entered ISWEEEP in Texas</p>

<p>Might be better off at Wake Forest, Brandeis or American, especially if you do well on A-levels… they are test-optional.</p>

<p>UCSD: High reach
UCSB: Reach
UWI: Reach
UWA: Reach
UMinn: Reach</p>

<p>For Penn State, come back here once you have the breakdown of the O-levels/GCSEs, as well as predicted A-levels… these things are ~2/3 of the way into Penn State.</p>

<p>Thanks catria
Ive got my predicted A levels result which is
A* A A
But i didnt take O levels because i sat for a national examination
back in my home country</p>

4

<p>If my national examination is equivalent to the O levels,
Ive got 8A 2B
Can that help increase my chances?</p>

5

<p>If you’re full pay, you’re fine for Penn State since they’ll heavily factor your 8As on GCSEs + full pay “hook”. :)</p>

6

<p>Thanks, well do i have any chance admitting
into ucSb since im sponsored?
Is it reachable</p>

7

<p>I doubt that you can get into UCSB with a 1500, even as an out of state sponsored student and even with some leeway for the CR.</p>

<p>I think all of these schools are reaches.

<p>For UCI I’d say your odds are similar as for UMN.
That’s assuming you’re not applying for engineering or majors with limited enrollment/further selection to get into.
Hopefully your recent retake saw a major increase.</p>
