<p>Hi.......i think the title sums up what i am about to ask.</p>

<p>I am an International student, currently studying 12th Grade and follow the indian syllabus</p>

<p>I just wanted to know what my chances are in getting admission into for Aeronautical Engineering.</p>

<p>I don’t have GPA grading in my school. The grading is purely based on marks obtained:
9th - 85% (maths - A, science - A, hindi - B, english - A, social studies - A)
10th - 90% (maths - A, science - A, hindi - B, english - A, social studies - A)
11th - 75% (maths - C, chemistry - B, physics - A, english - A, computer- A)</p>

<p>I had also recieved a half-fee scholarship in grade 11.</p>

<p>ACTIVITIES :
I have been selected to attend the Global Young Leaders’ Conference (GYLC) in Washington/New York this year.
Swimming
Singing
Made Robot for science exhibition
Created a presentation on the periodic table
Helped the team in coming 3rd in an inter-school robot competition
Seminar of Ozone Layer and pollution
Seminar on the game of Hangman made by C++
Project on Tessellation
I have been learning Indian Carnatic Music vocal for over 10 years and have given a 2 and half hour concert. I have also been learning Carnatic Music violin for over 3 years.
Participated in the talent contest held in school in the category of indian classical violin.</p>

<p>SAT SCORES:
MATH - 750
CR - 650
W - 600</p>

<p>Going to give SAT II's in November. Will get above 750 in maths and chemistry, thinking of whether to give physics.</p>

<p>Will appreciate all responses. good as well as bad.</p>

<p>Thanks all.</p>

<p>I think you have a good shot. Purdue loves international students, and I think it would be hard for them to turn down a 750 M on the SAT for a person looking at engineering. Make sure you get the app in as soon as possible. i don't think you have to worry too much. Good luck.</p>

<p>What is your opinion?</p>

<p>should i apply now or should i apply after my november sat II's scores are released.</p>

<p>Apply now; earlier is better with rolling admissions. Although you're applying as an international student so it's not exactly the same, my son was accepted in Sept. with almost identical SAT scores, and I don't think SAT II scores are even required to apply. I'd recommend going ahead.</p>

<p>thnx i shall apply soon</p>
