<p>Anyone chance me, please?
I'll chance back!</p>

<p>Anyone? I’ll chance back</p>

<p>I’m an intl as well! Going by your sat scores I think you have a great chance! </p>

<p>My son has applied to Wash and Emory, so I can only speak to those. IF they lower the standards for internationals, then I guess you are competitive. For an American student, you would not be competitive. But from what I see on the boards, it seems the standards are lower for intn’l and if you are full pay I’m sure that will help you a lot. Emory is beautiful, we have not toured wash in several years, so will tour after a decision. </p>

<p>Emory - High Match (My sister got in with much lower stats than yours)
UCB - Reach
UCLA - Low Reach
Illinois ( im assuming it is Urbana champaign ) - Match/High Match
UCSD - Match
UCI - Not sure but should be close to a safety </p>

<p>This is what i feel based on mine and my friends’ admissions :slight_smile: Good luck !</p>

<p>I think that your IB scores are really good- with IB I don’t think anyone would give GPA as much consideration alongside it :slight_smile:
Emory: Match
UCB/LA: reach/low reach
UIUC: Match
UCSD: Match
UCI: Match
NYU: Match
Notre Dame: Match
WashU: Match/low reach
Good luck! Chance back? :slight_smile: <a href=“Chance me for Vassar I'll chance back :) - Vassar College - College Confidential Forums”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/vassar-college/1718961-chance-me-for-vassar-ill-chance-back-p1.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>@KrishSC‌ Thanks! but I’m worried about my low GPA</p>

<p>@ZBD5421‌ Thank you for commenting. WashU is my dream school and I know that it’s REALLY difficult to get accepted :p</p>

<p>@ss124081‌ Thanks for chancing me! I also feel quite confident when I compare my stats with that of previous graduates, but I get quite nervous when seeing all the high stats here in cc</p>

<p>Chance me! </p>

<p>Strong SAT Is and IIs will help your chances a lot. Also winning medals in the math competition is important highlight that. Idk about speaking three languages but that is interesting. chance my back? <a href=“Chance me - #5 by Wje9164be - Chance Me / Match Me! - College Confidential Forums”>Chance me - #5 by Wje9164be - Chance Me / Match Me! - College Confidential Forums;
