<p>Hard to assess your chances without any sort of standardized test scores or any sense of how competitive your school is. Your swimming may be a tremendous help -- definitely contact the Williams coach. The women's team at Williams is outstanding, and generally finishes in the top four nationally at the Division III tournament. Science and pre-med classes are some of Williams' greatest strengths. Being international may help, as Williams has really been working to expand its international campus presence (as evidenced by recently decision to go to need-blind aid for internationals, one of only five US colleges or universities to do so). My advice -- get in touch with the swimming coach asap and let them know your times, and try to see if they can help gauge your admissions chances.</p>

<p>my school is pretty competitive, but its got british examinations IGCSEs and IB - The teacher who handles SAT has told me i could probably get a 1400 in SAT1 without much trouble, and the few students who have done SAT2 tests have had pretty good results - if the top is 800 then 700+ and if the top is 700 then its 600+ but right now i dont remember which one of the two. </p>

<p>thanks for everything :)</p>
