<p>I think you have a great chance. Just keep in mind, admissions for asian students are much more competitive during the RD round. But you seem to be a very competitive candidate.</p>

3

<p>I think I have about five months with me so should I focuss on doing something else to make my application stronger.Like working more or doing few internships or writing a thesis.</p>

4

<p>Well, you've already made suggestions for yourself. There isn't anyone here who knows more about you than you do! =)</p>

5

<p>Apply ED if you really want to come to Princeton. Spend the time thinking about what kind of a school you want to attend. Big city? Suburban and leafy green? Suburban and yellow sandstone?</p>

6

<p>You have great stats+ECs. I'd say you have excellent chances, but isn't it harder to get in as an international?</p>

7

<p>I don't know ramsfan that's why I am asking you people.
I wont apply ED coz my first choice is Stanford and I am doing SCEA there.So please give my chances in RD</p>

<p>I'm not an expert on international admissions, but I believe your chances for RD will be stellar if you explain well in your essay why you want to attend an American school, especially Princeton.</p>
