<li><p>Your Critical Reading Score is SUB PAR. Adcomms don’t admit students into departments individually, they admit students into the undergrad/collegiate division so you will be competiting with a prospective poli science or arts or physics major. </p></li>
<li><p>I dont think international students are given URM status but unless you come from a really exotic location like Tuvalu or Congo or Kazakhstan, you will get no special treatment then you will be competing against many other over qualified internationals.</p></li>
<li><p>Show your passion and interests. </p></li>
<li><p>Since admission is crapshoot and specially so for us internationals, best of luck!</p></li>

<p>Thanks DarthSpawnus.</p>

<p>Small Correction : 4 years as magazine editor, definitely not 4hrs.</p>

<p>Any more Chances?</p>

<p>LOL
Show your passion, in this case writing and poetry
Stranger things have had happened during college admissions ;)</p>

<p>Bump. . . . .</p>

<p>Your CR is low, and that casts doubt on your entire application. If you can get your CR score up to the mid 700s, then you have very good chances at all those schools. Everything else is solid.</p>

<p>Bumping is allowed.</p>

<p>Agree with jaytehman. I would say the same thing for your writing score. Mid 700s for both would put you in a much more favorable position for the schools that you’re looking at.</p>

<p>What third world country?</p>

<p>Yeah because although you are international, you will face my 780 writing 790 math and 720 reading at several of those places. The bar I set lower for internationals, but realistically not that low.</p>
