<p>Dude you guys have a track team in Pakistan? Who the hell do you race against?
I couldn't tell you your chances, but you seem like a very competitive applicant.</p>

<p>Haha man..Pakistan isnt a desert ..Its developing..you would be surprised to come here...We race against other schools in Pakistan and neighboring countries.. SAISA is an affiliation of schools in Pakistan, India, Nepal, Sri Lanka all American Embassy or American Govt Associated Schools... LAS is on of the top schools here...Lahore is a city where you'd probably be surprised but ppl drive around in Rolls Royce Phantoms and Seven Series like ppl in the states do...Yeah recent events have probably put us on the dangerous country list..but ive been to Afghanistan with Dick Cheneys company..its not like wht the media shows...Its all media man all media...so dont believe wht people say..come see for yourself!..thanks..</p>

<p>Hey, my parents taught at Lawrence College in Murree before we moved to America.
Your chances look good but schools like Stanford are need-blind to international students, so I hope you don't need financial aid.</p>

<p>Also look at Cooper Union (it is a great school that gives you a free ride if you are accepted)</p>
