Chance of International student

<p>I am applying to some top schools( MIT , Cornell...). I am an international student from asia. </p>

<p>Standardized tests:
Sat 1900 (math 800)
Sat II MATH II 800
Physic 800
Toefl IBT 102</p>

<p>Awards:
Bronze medal, International mathematic olympiad
Gold medal , National mathematic olympiad
Gold medal, National physics olympiad</p>

<p>So what are my chances? which school should I apply?</p>

<p>wow you’re awards are impressive
but any other extracurriculars besides those?
volunteering? sports? </p>

<p>the only thing i would suggest are getting ur SATs higher
a 1900 is sorta low for the top tier schools try to get 2200+ </p>

<p>chance back?

<p>thanks :]</p>

<p>you should also try schools like
berkley or uchicago
that are a little easier to get into than harvard yale mit etc
but still good schools</p>

<p>I agree that your awards are very impressive, but as a fellow asian international, I have to say that it’s possible that your obvious talent at math/sciences might not be enough. It IS definitely a good thing, but unless you show them that you’re well rounded (languages, writing, reading etc), you’re just going to come off as a meh asian kid with a flair for numbers.</p>

<p>Do you need financial aid?</p>

<p>Yes. I need financial aid!</p>

<p>What do you intend to study?</p>

<p>Do you ask major? I am very interested in math. I intend to study math or engineering.</p>
