<p>I am a first generation immigrant from Asia, female--I obviously speak a different language fluently.</p>

<p>Should I even bother applying?</p>

<p>Do bother indeed, you have excellent chances. Also, you ACT is terrific, so I wouldn't obsess over taking the SAT again if you have better things to do.
Best of luck!</p>

<p>so colleges don't care whether i send in the act or sat?</p>

<p>They really don't. Your grades are of much more interest any day, so make sure they are very solid. Studying for the SATs takes real time away from academics.</p>

<p>Looks good! I second what momofdd said about the scores--your ACT is awesome! </p>

<p>Good luck...</p>
