I'm in one of the most competitive high schools in India. i've graduated within the top 10%
there are no AP/IB/Honors programs offered at my school, so i've done the best with whatever was available. I've been told that American Univ's consider Indian courses on par with AP level. My classes were - Eng, Hindi(foreign lang) Physics, Maths, Chemistry, and Biology.</p>
<p>Academics- 1470 SAT (v-760, m-710) SAT II- Wr- 750 Math 2c -790
Chem -670 (WILL THIS KILL ME?)</p>
<p>EC's- Capt Debate team, 9 years hawaiian guitar, internship with Indian equivalent of CNN, Secretary General of several Model UN's, founded own newsletter with over 200 subscribers (have submitted newsletter to colleges for review), working with retd admiral of indian naval fleet on a friendship program between pakistani and indian school kids, elected by students from over 140 diff countries to preside as president over international youth conference held in Washington DC, captain of house soccer team..community service with cancer support group.</p>
<p>My brother is a Junior at Washington Univ in St. Louis. (Legacy.)</p>
<p>I'm confident that my recomendations are stellar.
my counsellor said my essays were one of the best she had ever come across (: (: (but essays are relative?)
Will my poor SAT 2 Chemistry marks spike me? my school grades through 9-12 have been consistently good. dad suffering from cancer, paralysis- mom working full time so i spend lots of time looking after him- grades could have been better( but are still good) counsellor report explains this.</p>
<h2>although i live in India, i'm a permanent resident of the US so i'm not an international student.</h2>
<p>well if you've taken the trouble to read through this, pl give me a realistic picture of which schols i have a shot at, and which schools have already put my app to use in the staff toilets.
thanks.</p>
<p>by indian equivalent of CNN i was referring to NDTV (well not exactly CNN, but....)</p>
<p>American adcoms do not consider Indian courses on par with AP Level, they simply judge indian applicants on the basis of class rank and standardized test scores. I believe you are an extremely strong applicant with great scores (barring the sat II chem, which shouldn't have a huge affect on your application). HYP, Swarthmore and Amherst are reaches, I think you may get in one or two of them, but I believe you will definately get into most of the other schools on that list. </p>
<p>Not being an international student will HELP YOU. Being a US Citizen with an indian education will put you in a unique position. </p>
<p>It seems you have a rather strange selection of schools, with no real pattern to your choices?</p>
<p>It was a rhetorical question adi.
has everyone received letters from Yale with ID and PIN? Because I haven't :(</p>
