<p>Hello, dear everybody. I am new here. I am a PRC studet studying in Singapore on a government scholarship.

SAT2 math IIC 800
physics 800

<p>pretty good, i'd say. just make sure that your essay is good (which shouldnt be a problem considering that you hav won an essay competition) and you do a good job on presenting ur accomplishments.</p>

<p>hello there fellow singapore student! sorry i cant comment on your chances since i'll be applying for the class of 2010 too, so i'm no more familiar with this than you. but just asking, dont you have any olympiads/research programme in singapore etc (i'm assuming u are in science cos most scholars dont do arts)? as for ccas/interests, do u have any awards/certification because it's kind of hard to tell how involved you are without any qualifications i guess. my seniors who got into ivy league all won international awards or at least did very well in national competitions. the international pool is really competitive :( good luck anyway!</p>
