Chance me!

Hello,

I am a female highschool senior from India(International applicant), studying under the National Curriculum CBSE. I have scored a 1420(780-Math and 540-English) in my SAT and a 6/7/7 on my SAT Essay and a 760 in SAT Chemistry. I’ll be taking SAT Math 2 and SAT Physics on October 1st and I am awaiting for my TOEFL score result which is due next week.

Academics:
I have a CGPA of 9.2/10 in 9th(freshmen) year and 9.6/10 in 10th(sophomore). I had received a total 78.4% in my 11th grade and ranked 14th in school. Along with that, I have been a finalist in a state level science exam and received scores of 95.35/100 in Science proficiency test and 78.04/100 in English proficiency test.
(Apparently, we don’t have things like honors or APs)

I have been working as a part time teaching assistant for over an year at a Lab started by IIT Bombay alumni which focuses on teaching grade school students about science with experimentation and middle school students about electronics. Along with that, I have done a summer internship at Robosapiens Technology, attended courses on Solar Cells and Entrepreneurship offered by the Government of India and attended a course on ‘Swarm Robotics’ at IIT Bombay.

I have made my own solar powered cycles and contributed to my community by making and installing a solar based bio-digestor in my housing society.

I completed a course on Globalisation by University of Texas at Austin with a 79% and a Geometry course by school yourself with a 95%. Currently, I am doing a course on Pre-University Calculus offered by Delft Institute of technology. These courses were/are being mainly taken for interest in a topic or exam prep.

Leadership:
I am the house captain of one of the four houses at my school(If you are not familiar with it… refer to Harry Potter) and the Director of a committee in the first inter-school MUN ever being held in my district.

Along with all these, I also have awards from inter-school drama competitions and given several dance performances(both contemporary and classical dances). I was the editor of my school magazine and have won prizes at story writing competitions. My hobbies include playing basketball, watching anime and tinkering with the learning kits at my workplace.

I am applying early application to GeorgiaTech for Computer Engineering.

P.S. if any one wants to help me with essay editing let me know.

You definitely have amazing ECs! I think you should have no problem getting in. Good Luck!

Hey thanks, nice to know that they are great. Apparently, I am more concerned about my school grades. The CBSE rote style of learning never really suited me but my father wanted me to undergo the CBSE pressure and style of education.

Also, do you think not giving APs will hinder my application?

What do u have for TOEFL?

@Ben576569

I have a 111 for TOEFL.

And, SAT Subjects:
Math2 - 800
Physics - 780
Chemistry - 760

Cool…I somehow got 730 on Physics… disappointed

@Ben576569 SAT Physics is sorta hard. Things which are taught in 2 years of HS(Indian-CBSE Board) are tested in this 1 hour of testing. xD

What kind of applicant are you? IS/OOS/International
