Chances?

[wanderingreen]

<p>chance me someone? Was going to post to the official thread but it looks a bit dead xP.</p>

<p>I'm an international student so can't calculate GPAs because I don't have my A-level results yet + we don't use the same grade system.</p>

<p>Pretty rigorous coursework.</p>

<p>SAT Reasoning Scores
CR - 800/Math - 760/Writing - 670</p>

<p>SAT II Scores
Literature - 740
Math II - 700</p>

<p>Applying to College of Letters and Science to read Political Science.</p>

<p>ECS: </p>

<p>Past 2 years: School Magazine/Writing Society Secretary, Class Rep, 300+ Volunteer Hours, Astronomy Club, Photographic Society, BioScience/Medical Internships</p>

<p>Got a bunch of stuff before that but can't be bothered to list :p</p>

<p>Accomplishments/awards:</p>

<p>Dean's List once for a subject (sorta like English)
Couple of school service awards</p>

<p>As long as you have higher than a 4.0 UC GPA, then you should be shoo-in for Berkeley. Your SAT1 and SAT2, ECs are good enough for L&S.</p>

<p>Bio/Medical internships but heading to PoliSci? :)</p>

[wanderingreen]

<p>really? I’m pretty worried because it seems like Berkeley admits only a handful of international students ><. Thanks for chancing me.</p>

<p>Bio/Med internships done to please the parents mostly but I argued my way into doing Pol. Sci/Law in the end.</p>

<p>If you don’t need financial aid, I’d say you got an okay chance. Berkeley enrolled quite a number of students from Singapore (30+?) last year anyway.</p>
