<p>Not being an admissions officer, it’s hard to tell what your chances are. Your SATs are in the middle 50% for accepted students last year. How did you do on the writing section? Is your Maths SAT subject test for level 1 or 2? Don’t worry that your GPA is not reported on a 4.0 scale. Plenty of US schools do the same so admissions officers are used to seeing that. </p>

<p>It’s difficult to compare your achievements with someone from a US high school. That said, your ECs look ok. I’m curious, though, why you worked in a hospital for only a month in grades 11 and 12? Be sure to explain this on your application. Depth of activities is very important. Also did you work (get paid) or volunteer (no pay)? This is an important distinction to make sure that you state correctly on your application (to all schools, not just WPI). </p>

<p>Best of luck to you as you navigate the application process!</p>
