<p>Very Impressive, but remember most of the Ivies are choosing from a pool of overqualified candiates. Don’t be devastated if you don’t make it. Your hard work has given you a chance, that’s all that’s you can ask for. The rest is up to them. Be ready with applications to other selective schools along with a safety or two. Good luck.</p>
<p>Jannevruzi has no idea what he/she is talking about. If colleges see a 520 for French SAT II along with “Most Outstanding French Student” they are not going to consider any of your French awards to mean anything. A 520 on a subject test is about 50th percentile.If you could speak French fluently one would expect a better score on such a test. Chances are maybe 25%.</p>
<p>Dont apply under early D. You have a very good chance of getting in regular d. The reason why is because it’s binding and you can go to a better school.</p>
<p>well I think you have about 80% chance of being under ED. I also think you might be able to get into a better school, but if Columbia takes your fancy why not apply ED-will definitely give you a legs up.
