<p>Hey!</p>

<p>Can't comment on GPAs etc...(I'm intl.)
SAT 1s are ok but not great
SAT 2s seem pretty (very! :)) good
ECs varied, but passion can be seen (that'll keep the adcoms happy! :))
Essays and recs sound good</p>

<p>Chancing is difficult! lol But other business schools: MIt has a pretty good one (Sloan, I think).
