<p>I'm an immigrant student (born in romania, but have lived in italy since 2004, so for the last 5 years - came in italy in 8th grade). Besides, I knew nohing about italian, but since my native language is a latin one, I didn't have too many difficulties to learn italian.</p>
<p>I am attending the penultimate year of hs (in italy there are 5 years of hs, so I'm considered a Junior), but thanks to my grades, I am among the 60 italian students who have the right to teach themselves the 5th and last year of hs (regularly attending the 4th, but studying and preparing alone for the "Maturit</p>
<p>I think your scores and ec's are definitely in the top range for ivy league applicants, so i think you have a great chance! but as an international applicant the competition is even tougher so good luck!</p>
<p>Your stats are great for those schools, but being an international does put you in a smaller and generally more competitive pool of applicants, although you still stand out there. Just make sure that your essays are good, and you should have no problem getting into at least a couple of Ivies, and anywhere else that you apply.</p>
<p>it looks good (great scores, good ec's), but be sure to apply to some safeties. it seems like anyone and everyone is getting rejected from the ivies lately.</p>
<p>I am thoroughly WOWed by your standardized test scores.
Your ECs are also great, particularly your passion for chess (make sure this comes out in your essays).</p>
<p>You definitely have a great shot at the Ivys, with the exception of HYP. I'm only saying this because even the most incredibly qualified applicants get rejected from this school. You absolutely have a chance though.</p>
<p>I think that you have a great chance and that you can definitely get into an ivy school! Im not 100% sure if you could make the top 3 like Astonisher mentioned, but you have an amazing shot! The only thing that is holding you back is being an international student because there is some stiff competition there!</p>
<p>Definitely Into Cornell, and Dartmouth if you apply, the only thing you should worry about was that you weren't consistent with your activities throughout all 4 years. remember its not the amount of activities you do, but the quality and effort you put into them. Better to have 3 activities and hold positions than have 5 and do nothing or very limited in them! Excellent scores!</p>
