<p>Okay so this is a 'chance me' thread.</p>
<p>SAT 1 - Yet to take. Will be fine.
SAT 2(P/C/M2) -780/760/800</p>
<p>Academics (I am from the Indian system):

Grade 10 - 10 CGPA
*I was awarded for exceptional academic performance, for the academic session 2011-2012 (Grade-10).
Grade 11 - 79%</p>
<p>Extra Curricular Activities:
1.) Grade - 9
I was the editor of a magazine which was created by our class. The magazine had contributions from our class only. Almost 50 students contributed and it was about 90-100 pages thick. It was solely meant to showcase our class's own work. It took us around 6-7 months to get it ready.
I even headed the whole process of compiling, typing and designing the magazine. After completion it was released in front of the whole school and is now shelved in the school's library.</p>
<p>3.) Since Grade - 10
I have self-taught myself Java and Python.</p>
<p>2.) Grade - 11
Attended a C++ programming course. It was 52 days long. Became certified.</p>
<p>4.) Grade - 10 and 11 (approx. 2 years)
I have been teaching 'computers' to the poor kids. </p>
<p>Internships/Job Experience:
1.)Year - 2012 and Year - 2013
Two summer internships at an IT company. Did programming and stuff.</p>
<p>what kind of chance do I have at the top school (CMU,Cornell etc) and the others(GT,UTA,UI etc). Suggestions are welcome!</p>
