<p>I think it is funny when people "expect" to get a certain score on their SATS, because that can NEVER be predicted. But, you have good grades, and so I think you should go for any or all of those schools and see how it goes.</p>

<p>For Stanford, the ivies, caltech and MIT shoot for 2250+ and at least mid 700s on SATIIs. The top UCs are highly selective also when it comes to internationals. Your predicted grades will make you competitive at USC, CMU and UMich.</p>

<p>thanks for the help..yeah well i dont wanna be so over confident im getting 750+ on my mocks on each section..im just a bit intimidated by CR..even though tht was my highest score on the psat..but i dont know any advice...USC..UMICH and UCM..are i guess matches for me..but im aiming for Stanford and Berkeley...My friend got in this yr...with a 1900 on the SAT at stanford..and 720 and 690 on her SATII...but i dont think its tth easy for everyone..and yeah Berkeley..i hope my SAT scored help me with tht...and i guess being an international handicaps me at Berkeley...so yeah..thanks..umm wht has to be strong for Berkeley..my GPA's 4.0...and sat im aiming for 2200 plus inshAllah..and umm..sorry for tht(just a thing im used to saying)...Chem im aiming for a 800 if poosible..i love chemistry..US history was low cause of my teacher and plus it was majorly self study i spent the night before studying and i did the whole prep book in 12 hours..so it was a cram..so wht factors do i need to be strong in for these schools?..and the HYPSD?</p>
