<p>meh. you have a slight chance only.</p>

<p>I wouldn’t use your 30 ACT; the SATI is better.
Even with that, your test scores, GPA and ECs won’t knock the AdCom over.
You certainly have a shot and should apply, but it’s a complete crap shoot as to whether you get in. If your essays and recs happen to really impress the AdCom, anything is possible.
Good luck.</p>

<p>blah okay :/</p>

<p>Tough call, its harder to get in for internationals… Depends on essays + recs, because stats (esp. GPA) are sort of bringing you down a little.</p>

<p>Hey, I just looked at your scores, and we are pretty much on the same boat. I’m an ED international applicant, my unweighted is around 3.7, I also have a 2150, etc…</p>

<p>Let’s just hope the wind blows to our advantage the day they check our apps! Hopefully we’ll both get in :)</p>

<p>Chance me too guys!

<p>Haha awesome someone else who doesn’t have a straight shot in! Yeah I’m not an international student…I live in the U.S., but I just have a weird background. Ugh I can’t believe that everything is pretty much out of our hands. All there’s left to do it wait :/</p>

<p>haha trust me, many of the students in my school have your british-indian combination, so I wouldn’t call it weird! for the time being, we should just tell ourselves we won’t get in, that way, if we get in, we’ll be more than just happy, and if we don’t, we’ll be ok with it! wow, just a year ago, I thought people using CC had no life… and here I am using CC everyday. </p>

<p>anyways, good luck!</p>
