<p>OPPAN gangnam style~~too.</p>

<p>“Solar Bike (9th and 10th)-1st place finish in US compeitition, 2nd in world competitions in Japan …” that looks very legit.
Your stats are pretty much SET. However, you are an international student- this will
be the worst disadvantage for you. BUT your ECs will definitely stand out!!!
Good luck! you have a GREAT chance for all of them</p>

<p>thanks! hopefully, they will overlook that and accept meh</p>

4

<p>Yup I agree with Koaf1994! Your ECs are impressive! You have a very good chance at all of them, especially the ones that are need-blind. Best of luck!</p>

<p>thanks! do you know any other need blind schools?</p>

6

<p>MIT, Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Massachusetts
Harvard University in Massachusetts
Princeton University in New Jersey
Yale University in Connecticut
Dartmouth College in New Hampshire
Amherst College in Massachusetts
These are only schools that are need-blind for internationals, they are all top tier schools as may know but you are a very strong and unique candidate so I think you have a good chance at them. Best of luck.
Chance me back if you can:
