Luck factors for getting accepted?!

Those are all very hard schools to get into, even for domestic full pay students. By all means, apply! But overall, your best “luck” will come from applying to schools where you are bringing something to the community they really value and aren’t seeing a lot in the rest of their applicant pool.

So if one of the things you see yourself bringing is very high academic achievement, target schools where your stats are above those of the school. It’s far easier for a school to allocate funds from those dedicated to international students to one who is likely to be a high flyer in the classroom than to one who looks like the rest of the student body.
