<p>Do I have any chance?!!</p>

<p>I hate these kind of threads but I just have to know because after reading others, looking at their SAT scores, I am SOO frustrated. I'm feeling like i really have no chance; AT ALL..</p>

<p>I really love NorthEastern University but I feel like I have a very small chance getting into this school.</p>

<p>I participated in a good number of Extra-curricular activities such as National Honor society, Science club, Chess Club, Computer Club, Asian-American Club, Peer Tutoring as well as Soccer.</p>

<p>I was the vice-president of Computer Club and at vice-president at a Local Temple where I thought little kids. I also volunteered at Local Food Pantries, Hunger relief organizations and some other food programs.</p>

<p>I have been working in a youth program since the summer of 2007. There I have been Team-Captain, Crew-Leader and I did fair amount of Public speaking.</p>

<p>I have been All quarter honor roll student, Got nominated for Congressional Student Leadership Program and been nominated for Posse Scholarship.</p>

<p>I am a South-Asian male(Bangladeshi), have been in the US for two years and for that reason my SAT score is not very good. Cr-490, Math- 540 and Writing- 530. My Toefl score is 91 out of 120. NEU told me that for foreign students they replace SAT(R and W) scores with toefl scores. Then that would give me 600+600+540(1740).</p>

<p>Fortunately I have good GPA- 4.21(unweighted) 3.72(weighted). Rank 7 out of 317 students. Taking 2 AP classes. According to my teachers, I have good essays.</p>

<p>I applied to BU, BC, Tufts, NorthEastern, Umass Boston, Mass college of Pharmacy, WPI, Holy Cross. I was wondering if being in the US and being minority will help me somehow.</p>

<p>Thanks for taking you time to read this and any answer would numb down my worries!(Although I know that I will probably not get accepted into any of these colleges )</p>

<p>EC's look good.</p>

<p>Even if you were in the US for only 2 years, your math score is kind of low. Numbers are the same everywhere. I can understand for writing and CR, you scored low but math is universal.</p>

<p>Good GPA.</p>

<p>It all boils down to how much the schools like you. They can ignore SATs but you have to make it up in other areas.</p>

<p>As I said before, UMass Boston, Mass Pharmacy, and Holy Cross are your best chances.</p>

<p>I am going to say a definate no to BC, Tufts, and WPI.</p>

<p>BC and WPI are well known for math and you scored too low on math. Tufts well...Is Tufts...</p>

<p>Boston University maybe but low chance since you didn't apply ED I believe.</p>

<p>No offense, but you're probably wasting your time applying to BC and Tufts.</p>
