<p>Please read the whole thing and answer truthfully, i take criticism. If you think ED Cornell is impossible, please also give ideas for which university i would have the biggest chances.
I am a Bulgarian and study in an american college in Bulgaria.
GPA - 5,50 / 6 (i slacked 9th and 10th grade)
SAT I - 2260 (around 750 on each section)
SAT II - Math II - 770, English lit - 750, World History - 760
AP's - Micro/Macro economics 5/5, Calculus BC - 4, Statistics - 4
I have not taken IELTS or TOEFL, but i have taken the Proficiency exam with an A.
Extracurriculars - UNICEF Bulgaria, Model United Nations, I'm the best chess player in my school with numerous victories in tournaments, i am in the table tennis, soccer and volleyball clubs in my school (my soccer team won the school tournament this year), I have also played tennis outside school ever since i was 7 + some time proffesionally.
I have participated in several competitions on economics - JA TITAN, and some bulgarian ones.
I have written an essay on the Holocaust, which was one of the nominated for the award for the B'Nai'Brith organization
I have been on summer camps in Spain - i can speak Spanish ok, and in Cambridge on an economics/management summer school.
I have two 1-month internships. 1 in the bulgarian ministry of finance, and 1 in a firm called Price Waterhouse.
Again, any advice/criticism is welcome.</p>
<p>Your chances are probably very good, assuming you have the means to pay your way through Cornell (or have sufficient outside scholarships). Your test scores are good as are your ECs. I don’t know what to make of your GPA. Are you able to convert that to a 4.0 scale? If not, are you at/near the top of your class?</p>
<p>Thank you. My GPA is 5,5 out of 6, so that is around 3,6/7 out 4, if i’m not mistaken. As i said i slacked 9th and 10th grade, but i am a dreamer, so i really hope i could get in.</p>
<p>You have pretty good chances if you are in the top 10% of your class.</p>
<p>You will have a pretty good chance at ED for Cornell, but definitely not a lock. Good luck!</p>
<p>Good chance in my opinion. Good luck!</p>
