<p>Please can someone tell me my chances? I dont think the chance is too big for me to be accepted at all, i did horribly on my SATs, but i gave it a try anyway.
I applied for RD.
Im currently studying in UK in one of the best schools in the country, it is not co-ed. I am currently studying ALevel in Uk and am in grade 12 and I have lived in three other countries.</p>
<p>I applied with no request of scholarship etc.</p>
<p>My AS subjects are: French, German, History, Religion, Russian. I speak fluently all of those languages.
I graduated my secondary school, GCSE (2006) and my grades were:
Math B
English B
Literature C
German A+
French A+
Science CC
Religion A
History A
Art A
Russian A+</p>
<p>I have very good teacher's refference and my essay is not bad.
I dont plan to ask for any financial aid or scholarship etc.</p>
<p>Activities: Art lessons, horse riding, swimming, modern languages, drama</p>
<p>Drama: level 5</p>
<p>However my toefl was not that great: 94/120
My sat was terrible, so very bad, i think it might ruin everything. I took it first time and i cant do maths, im very bad at it. Im good at other subjects but not maths. My results were: 1240/2400!!!!
I plan to study International Relations in NYU. And i aslo applied to Fordham and Pace and few other schools. But can someone tell me my chances at those three schools:
NYU
Fordham
Pace
I would be very thankful if someone would give me their opinion.</p>
<p>As far as NYU goes, really really really hard! your sat is below 50 Percentile, either take it again or try the act it might suit you, your As level grades arent that great either, since your applying international you have alot of competition, people with 11 A's in O levels, and such things, i say you try the SAT again and give a few SATII's in a subject that your confident about and you know you can score a 700+ in.. GOOD LUCK</p>
<p>shahwaiz i agree with you and know what you mean. Unfortunatly i missed the SATII and i think it will be late taking it before the decision is made, i think next SATII will be in late spring, but i would definitly take that exam if i wont get into any of those schools. Yes i think it would be very easy for me, im very good in French and German not like in Maths.</p>
<p>Can you tell me if i have more chances at Fordham or Pace???? I hope at least there i can be accepted. I know NYU is very hard school to get in, but what do you think about others???</p>
<p>Can someone also tell me if SATII is more important than SAT???</p>
<p>I agree with parkrunner that the SAT is more important, because it is supposed to give a general estimate of your academic ability.
Sadly, I don't think your chances at Fordham or Pace are good because, if I'm interpreting your SAT score correctly, you aren't in range for them either.
If you don't get in this year, I would advise you to work hard on your English and Math and try to transfer in a year if you're still interested in coming to school in the U.S.</p>
