Chances of getting into US Ivy Leagues

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>hey, I'm a foreign student, (Malaysia), and I'm currently in Grade 10. Do I stand a higher chance of getting into an Ivy league school base on my ethnicity? Also, my grades aren't too shabby; considering that I move around around every 5 years or so, will colleges take that into consideration too?<br>
I really would like to study at Stanford or maybe Brown, with a major in molecular biology xP
thanks !</p>

<p>oh, and one more point, do I have to fill in a native language on the application form? Because well, I don't really have a native language/mother tongue; I can speak English, Chinese and Cantonese fluently. not so much Malay though xP</p>

<p>there’s no racial preferences for international students. Even if there were, asians are overrepresented.</p>

<p>The way to get into an ivy as an international is to be one of the very top students from your country by objective measures.</p>

<p>^ what do you exactly mean by “objective measures” ???</p>
