Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hi!
First of all thanks for reading this post, whoever you may be!</p>

<p>I'll be applying to the Unis in the title this autumn, for Computer Engineering. Please give insight on my chances based on the following:</p>

<p>Nationality: British
Origin: Pakistani (Living in Pakistan at the moment as well)</p>

<p>Languages: English, Urdu, French (Fluent) and Italian (Almost fluent)
GPA: 4.0 unweighted. I'm taking Cambridge A-levels in June. These are equivalent to AP.
Subjects: Maths, Physics, Computing, World History and Economics</p>

<p>SAT score (This is pretty low compared to most students applying to these schools):
M690 CR 730 W700 (2120)
I'll take the subject tests on December 7th.</p>

<p>EC's:
-Summer course at Oxford University (97% in course)
-Internships with the UN, WHO and PEPSICO.
-Founder and head of a charity which provides free healthcare to underprivileged kids
-Member of the National U-19 Basketball team
-Captain of my school cricket team
-Deputy head boy
-Loads of community service and volunteer work, such as organizing/participating in<br>
-charity drives, teaching underprivileged kids etc.
-President of school quiz and science societies
-Numerous accolades at national and international level in the quiz/science competition circuit</p>

<pre><code> -School humanitarian society and literary society executive member
</code></pre>

<p>I'm sure there is more but this is essentially the bulk of it.</p>

<p>I don't know if I'll be able to afford college, so not sure about aid (If I can pay, I'll have to break the bank to do so). How much of a hinderance will my sat score be? I'm a decent writer and think my essay/supplements will be competitive, but not entirely sure.</p>

<p>I think you might have a slim chance at the top Ivy League Schools, but you can more than likely get into Rice and Cornell. Rice meets a 100% of your financial need if you get accepted</p>

<p>You are right that your SAT score is pretty low for these schools. Particularly, your Math score is really low for top engineering schools.</p>

<p>Hi all! Forgot to add that I play golf regularly, and do have some accolades at national level. Also, as far as pertinent EC’s are concerned, I computerised the previously paper based admissions process of a local university by making a database software, I have designed a website and I interned in the IT office of my country’s largest retail company, where I conducted research on issues in their retail management system that was leading to losses in sales. I have a LoR from the CIO. How much will this help? Also, where do I stand with Carnegie Mellon?</p>
