<p>I am a student from Switzerland that would like to attend Stanford. I am a white male and I don't have any hooks.</p>
<p>My SAT score is 1870 with Math 700 Reading 620 and Writing 550. As you can see the writing part ruined my score totally.
I am a really good student at my high school. I am top in every subject besides French.
I was a foreign exchange student in the USA, I had only A+'s and I was the best in my class. I also got accepted to the National Honor Society when I was there.</p>
<p>I know that my SAT score is really low for this school and I wanted to know how my chances are? How does Stanford rate the language sections and appliances for foreigners? If I don't have a chance at Stanford what range of colleges should I apply for?</p>
<p>go ahead and apply to stanford, but i think you have below zero chance of getting in. you have to be really really good/specialized/whatever at SOMETHING to attend stanford. unless you win major awards for your academics (because your SATs don't cut it) i doubt you have a chance.</p>
<p>if you don't have a hook, you're wasting your time at the ivys & stanford. especially if your sats are really low, even though you may do well in school.</p>
<p>there are tons of internationals who have gpas of 4.8's with 2400 sat's who are veryy academically driven. if you can set yourself apart from them with a really really good hook, you just might cut it.</p>
