<p>Hi!</p>
<p>I'm an Indian National. I'm in my junior year, and I'll be taking the SAT 1 on May 5.
Since, I'm not sure whether these ECs are good enough, so I hope you can chance me:</p>
<p>Background:
I lived in San Jose, California for 7 years, from KG to 5th grade, before moving back to India. However, I only got a green-card, which has since expired, and no citizenship; though, I'd like to know if this can help me in any way.Presently, I'm attending a private school for my junior and senior years, in India.</p>
<p>About Me:</p>
<p>GPA - ~3.8 ( CGPA 10, in 9th and 10th Grade )</p>
<p>Rank - Top 1%, class of ~90 students, So I'm normally 1st or 2nd rank.</p>
<p>Core Subjects - Math, Science,Physics,Chemistry
Languages - English, Hindi
<-- Subjects taken are the hardest available level in the schooling board; and, I'm also undergoing coaching for the IITJEE ( an elite exam in India ) - so the coaching courses are even harder.</p>
<p>ECs:</p>
<p>-on School Basketball and Handball teams
-GATE student - when I was in the US. Also, was on student council and peace-keepers committee.
-Okinawa Karate - Black Belt ( 9 yrs. - since 2nd grade in the US )
-MARRS International Spelling Bee - International Level Qualifier (2 years) ( It's pretty popular in India)

-Won numerous school-level, inter-school-level Debate, Essay and Speech Competitions
-Won various other random competitions in 6-10th grade
-Active participant on forums - techguy.org and quora.com</p>
<p>I'm probably going to be applying to CalPoly,SLO and UTA(Arlington); maybe, Princeton, if possible. If you know of any other colleges that I might ahve a chance getting into - please do tell.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
