<p>I have to ask, because I don't know the system as well as some of you. :) I'm an international from England, applying to transfer Fall-2007. I'm a freshman at St Andrews University, studying English and Latin. </p>
<p>My Stats:</p>
<p>GCSES: English lit, lang, Maths, French, Bio, Chem, Physics, Latin, History: Grade A (out of A*) Art: B</p>
<p>AS levels: English lit, Classics, History: A (out of A) Latin: B</p>
<p>A levels: Eng lit, History: A Classics: B (out of A)</p>
<p>Advanced Extension Award (goes beyond A-level/high school level) English Distinction</p>
<p>SATs: Currently getting around a 2100 on the practice tests, hoping to pull that up to a mid-2200 at least.</p>
<p>SATIIs: Literature: 740, Latin: 530 (with no practice after two years not studying! Retaking)</p>
<p>APs: English lit and lang - 5s.</p>
<p>National Latin Exam: Summa Cum Laude at AP IV/V/VI level.</p>
<p>Extracurrics:</p>
<p>A whole host, including working as many hours as is legal since I was fourteen. Full time work from the age of eighteen, plus an English Speaking Union Exchange Scholarship to Peddie School in NJ. </p>
<p>Ballroom competitive dancing early - I had studied for three months before my first competition, and placed second in a regional competition after six months dancing. Flute, piano, singing in my school chapel choir, photographer for the yearbook, wrote on my school newspaper, helped set up the literature society, debated for my school and helped coach the younger years, directed an experimental production and took part in every play, was a prefect, etc. At St Andrews I'm likely to participate in Model UN, drama, music, dance, politics and environmental activism. </p>
<p>I'm also, unfortunately, a candidate for hefty aid. I need a school that will offer an international transfer, substantial financial aid. I'm thinking Yale, Cornell, Dickinson, Georgetown, Amherst and Dartmouth, but I'm not certain. What do people think?</p>
