Chance me? Ill chance back!

<p>Hi, Im an International Student applying from Dubai.</p>

<p>SAT : 2050 ( M-720 CR-650 W-690) W 9
ACT 31 W 10</p>

<p>SAT 2 - 780 in physics and maths.
TOEFL - 115
I attend an Indian School so we don't really have a GPA system , but i've been in the top 5% maybe 3% of my class and got above a 90% ( India system of calculation) throughout my senior year.</p>

<p>EC'S : Senior Soccer Captain , I really dont think EC's will be a problem. I have a diverse set ranging from sports to public service to elocution and debate.</p>

<p>Essays : I've always been a really good writer and I'm pretty sure my essays shouldn't be a stumbling block , my councellor's opinion as well.</p>

<p>I've been to the USA a number of times for a NASA program and done several courses from other universities such as Brown etc during my school year.</p>

<p>Im planning on applying early to these colleges , opinions guys , probably for Industrial Engineering.</p>

<p>Georgia Tech
Purdue
UIUC
UCLA
Berkeley
Cornell
Michigan
CMU</p>

<p>Also , have an uncle who is a resident of Georgia and Ive written for a magazine , if that helps?</p>

<p>GA Tech: Match
Purdue: Match
UIUC: Match/High match
UCLA: High match (unless you can pay full-freight)
Berkeley: High match
Cornell: Reach
UMI: High match
CMU: Reach</p>

<p>Is your safety in Dubai?</p>

<p>Not really , keen on USA ! Does being an International Student help? And yup full freight isn’t a problem.</p>

<p>Might want to consider RPI…</p>

<p>I think you’d definitely get into UCLA, Perdue, UIUC. As log as you say your essays will be good.</p>
