International student looking to apply to Yale - chances

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>So I want to apply to Yale however I think my chances are very unrealistic. In August I will receive my A2 results and by October I will take my SATs I Reasoning Test.</p>

<p>So here are a few stats</p>

<p>Nationality - British
Race - Black Caribbean
Sex - Male
School - Public
Rank - N/A
Financial Aid - Yes (Single Parent makes equivalent to $29,577 per annum according to XE.com)</p>

<p>A Levels: Realistically 2 As 1 B</p>

<p>GCSEs: I took 14 GCSEs (3 As, 6 Bs and 5 Cs)</p>

<p>Haven't done my SATs yet</p>

<p>Extra Circulars: </p>

<p>Swimming Level 7
Gold Certificate for Work Experience
Voluntary work at my local museum:</p>

<p>Transcribing oral interviews to be put into locally published books</p>

<p>Created an exhibition on Bone statues and ornaments made in the Norman Cross prison during the Napoleonic War</p>

<p>Another exhibition on the slave trade</p>

<p>Created an ICT database for all items in the museum collection</p>

<p>Been on local radio to promote exhibitions</p>

<p>Organized small workshops for little children</p>

<p>I think I am definitely sub par and without SATs I doubt anyone can chance me much.</p>

<p>Go England, I took the CIEs last year and got 3 As… I’m Chinese Female, and now I’m living in New York. chance me alongside!
I think that if you get a great SAT score you should be reasonably okay. Your race is a hook for you to get in</p>
