<p>Your stats aren’t waaay too low. SAT could definitely be better and that lone AP test is pretty weak, but everything else looks strong. What major are you looking at?</p>

3

<p>woops sorry lol,I JUST got my AP score in my mail,I got a 4 lol</p>

<p>You’re not strictly international - being born in CA means you’re a US citizen.</p>

<p>Berkeley doesn’t superscore so definitely bump up that CR score. Your stats aren’t too bad, with good essays and internal grades I think you’d have a good shot.</p>

5

<p>Since your school does not offer APs you won’t have a disadvantage for low # of APs</p>

6

<p>just bumb up that CR score and get 2200+ and I think you’re good.</p>

<p>since your American and you live in a foreign country, you’d be considered a “domestic” student…instead of “international”…</p>

<p>I dunno if you’d be In-state or Out-of-state though…</p>

<p>any ideas people?</p>

<p>Where is your GPA on there? That 3rd SAT II won’t matter unless you’re applying to CoC, I believe. Things like the AMC-12 score probably won’t matter just so you know because you didn’t go to the next round even.</p>

9

<p>haha “needies”. Better not address them that way on your app :P</p>

10

<p>you would be considered a ‘non-resident’ if your parents dont live in CA, you aren’t married, financially independent, or 24, etc.</p>
