<p>I know its a bit too late for cornell. Already submitted my ED today. But just wondering what my chances of getting into the College of Engineering (for engineering physics) are:</p>

<p>IB Diploma grade 11 finals:</p>

<p>Maths HL - 6
Chem HL - 6
Physics HL - 6
Bussiness and Management SL - 5
French Ab INitio - 6
English SL - 4</p>

<p>Improved to a 7 in physics and maths in the mid year. In my predicted Should be getting a point more in english and business. Maybe even chem, but maths may drop to a 6.</p>

<p>New SAT, gave it twice:
800M, 600V, 670W
740M, 650V, 690W
Giving my SAT 2 maths2c, physics and chem this week... should get 780+ in all three.</p>

<p>ECs (Very weak):
Guitarist in rock band, also guitar instructor (actually, only been playing for a year and a half, but practise half the day and am teaching a friend to play - just basics)
Organized an interschool sports tournament early this year, consisting of 5 sports, 4 high schools over a period of 3 days, also planning of having one early next year.
Was a prefect in my previous school (grade 9,10)
Have done two MUNs
Designed the school CAS (extracurriculars) Website
blue belt in karate, Pratham scout (according to the Indian System)
Distinction in the ETC Exams for Maths, Science and computer studies in grades 5,6,7,8
Merit certificates for 2 national-level GK and science competitions.</p>

<p>Any ideas what my chances might be for:
UC Berkeley, U Michigan, Northwestern, Rose-Hulman, U Maryland and Georgia tech</p>

<p>Finally, I'm Indian, Indian resident, but U.S. citizen, if that helps.</p>

<p>dude.. with those scores you are so in for all or mostly all of them :) good job - i'd love to get your scores -_-</p>

<p>thanks for the reassurance..... but the major problem that I forgot to mention is that my school's very very competitive, and although it doesnt rank, if it did, I wouldnt be anywhere near the top (out of 85). So, does Cornell necessarilly require rank? Also, my standard level IB grades are very low... my counselor said I have a "very slim chance - around 5-10%" of getting into Cornell with those grades. And finally, does Cornell convert IB grades to GPA, or look at them independently?</p>

<p>Oh.. forgot to mention, The above question applies for all my colleges.</p>
