Chances at Engineerging School!?

<p>Hey guys! I am planning to apply to Cornell for Industrial Engg. I wanted to know if I had any chances to get there. I am an International student currently studying in a small international christian school in INdonesia. i will graduate in 2008. The school i attend is really small (total 90 students). Being a small school there arent many oppurtunities. Only AP Calculus AB offered, no clubs and only 2 sports teams. Also, I live 2 hours away from my school, so I can't take part in any afterschool activities as I have to go back and forth from school to home wasting 4 hours everyday. Help would be greatly appreciated, and also professional advice. Pls. do inform me about my chances to the following schools also:</p>

<p>Stanford
Georgia Tech
University of Micghigan Ann Arbor
Purdue
Cornell
Carnegie Mellon</p>

<p>Stats:</p>

Going to take Math and PHysics again, and expect to improve drastically</p>

<p>bring up those SATs most people in the Ivys have like 2200+......</p>

<p>yea, bring up the SATs to about a 2200+ for an ok shot at cornell..... have you considered Cal or UCSD??</p>

<p>Stanford: huge reach
Georgia Tech: match
University of Micghigan Ann Arbor: match
Purdue: low safety (why even bother posting?)
Cornell: reach
Carnegie Mellon: reach</p>

<p>Thanks esmitty01 for taking out time to help....With my given stats, how can I boost my chances for Cornell?</p>

<p>cornell is kinda a reach for everyone i suppose. I don't know a whole lot about it, so i wouldn't necessarily seek my advice on that one. However, your sats don't really reflect your average Cornell student. Your rank is great, but its deceptive since its out of 15 students, i wonder how they will view that? But your stats are above and beyond for purdue, which accepts over 80% of applicants, and right in the middle of michigan and georgia tech.</p>
