<p>i am applying for computer science... do i have a chance or what?
and btw to give you a vrief description about my garding system, they grade us according to our percentage in the exams as follows
A* = 100 %
A = 95 %
B = 85 %
C = 67.5 %</p>

<p>as for the AS ( advanced studies )" A " is the highest grade that can be given to a student which is eaual to 95 & and then multiplied by 1.5 .</p>

<p>ask if u need anything :D</p>

<p>Idk the requirements for that school. Do they ask for the SATs or any standardized test. If they do, did you take those already?
You seem to be a really good student and person. Your ECs are really good. You just need to make sure what is that they are asking for since I have no idea of their requirements.</p>

<p>Good luck!!
Chance back!:

<p>no, i havent but i am planing to take them soon :smiley: is this an obstacle??</p>

<p>It’s hard to say, seeing that Abu Dhabi is a new school. However, with NYU’s standards, you seem to have a good shot at it. Your EC’s will help. Do well on your SATs; that could be the deciding factor. </p>

<p>Can you chance back?</p>

<p>You are a really good student with really good ec’s. As long as you do decent on your SATs I think you will have a really good shot. Good Luck!</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>If you got nothing but A’s or A*'s. Then your GPA is a 4.0. Which is excellent. It’s a perfect GPA.</p>

<p>WOOT…but still what do you think?? will i be chosen :smiley: ?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>It’s hard to tell for 2 reasons. You didn’t provide an standardize test score, and it’s a brand new school. Because you don’t have an standardize test score, I can’t begin to compare you to the students that were admitted. And because it’s a new school, there hasn’t been anyone admitted yet, so I have no one to compare you to. Your basically throwing a dart at the wall.</p>

<p>Before you can even think whether or not you will get it, you have to take a standardize test.</p>

<p>i am planning on taking the sat exam…but beleive me the IGCSE is way harder … its a british system and the stuff they teach to the students is incredibly hard…can you actually beleive the the AS math is the same Math an engineering freshman takes :stuck_out_tongue: !!!</p>

<p>Need your opinion guys…everyone :D</p>

<p>it really depends on your SAT scores honestly…</p>

<p>study and take the sat’s… they matter a lot
but over youre in good shape</p>

<p>chance back please?
