<p>I moved from Kuwait to Dubai as well… hmm anyway i think u’ve got an okay shot but if you could get ur SAT l score up a lil to like a 2000 and above, ur chances would be better. But the other scores are okay and ur activities are good… If you do Alevels try to get predictions of A/A* as well.</p>

<p>I would work on that SAT if I were you, as ricca suggested. Princeton doesn’t consider financial aid requests when making admissions decisions, so that’s no problem.</p>
