<p>If I were you I'd retake the SATs to augment your great GPA/class rank. Your ECs are decent not stellar but not poor either. As for the specific schools with your current SAT score, I say HYP are high reaches, Brown and Columbia are reaches, Cornell, Gtown, and NYU (Stern I'm assuming) are low reaches. The only safeties I see on this list are GW and Rutgers. Your SAT II's are pretty good save Math IC-no you cannot hide it from them lol.</p>

<p>Please chance me:

<p>Bump I just received my AP scores.</p>

<p>AP Calculus AB - 5
AP US History - 5
AP Eng. Lang. and Comp - 5</p>

<p>Thus I am now offically an AP Scholar right?</p>

<p>Does that improve my chances?</p>

<p>Your nationality is your hook...
In everywhere except for Harvard because of your nationality
depends on your luck at Princeton and Yale
You have to send all of your SAT scores.</p>

<p>Bill, are u serious?</p>

<p>My nationality as a Bangladeshi (from Banglades...which is in Asia) actually helps me?</p>

<p>That would be awesome.</p>

<p>How certain are u of this?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>i don't think nationality is important enough to GUARANTEE admission but it does help</p>

10

<p>Definitely, just make sure you write it somewhere on your app that you're from bangladesh</p>
