My chances to top 20 universities

[Everything_Math]

Hi , I am a prospective international applicant(High school freshman in India started doing homeschooling this year) I really like math (I want to do math phd after graduating )and have brought various math books( though I have to still start reading) , watched math videos from math channels like 3blue1brown and have watched first 5 lectures of MIT opencoursweare course of math for computer science and Single variable calculus. But I can’t do any fancy ECs because I am introverted and have high functioning autism .
What are my chances for these universities if I have good grades and SAT:
Uchicago
Reed (also how many Reed math majors go to top 5 -10 math programs)
NYU
Carnegie Mellon
UC Berkeley and UCLA
Dartmouth

Nobody should attempt to chance a freshman. There are too few data points. However, are you aware that international applicants to UCLA and Berkeley need to be full pay? And that financial aid at NYU is bad for everyone?

Thanks for the reply , actually I was asking about my chances after 4 years.

You have no portfolio. No grades. Test scores. Activities. No resume.

Check back in 3 years.

Good luck

Acceptance rates for well-qualified Indian applicants at T20 colleges ranges from 2 to 5 percent. Ask again in 2 years providing more detail like the below link.

How to post a Chance Me or Match Me (reverse chance me) thread -- START HERE

There are 2 kinds of posts many students find helpful: Chance Me: Get feedback on your chances of being accepted to specific schools. Match Me: Get suggestions for schools that match your profile and interests. First of all, create a CC account so you can post. Secondly, in order to maximize your chance of someone taking a look at your stats and giving feedback, you’ll need to do a few things: Title It Well Include a few details about you in the title: Transfer student from Boston aiming for UCs and ASU Tag it If you want chances on specific schools, use the chance-me tag If you want others to suggest schools to you, use the match-me tag Include details When you click “+ New Thread”, your post will include a template that you can follow to include the most relevant information. That template includes: Demographics (location, residency, HS type, legacy, US or Int’l, gender, etc) Intended Major(s) UW GPA, Rank, and Test Scores (also weighted GPA for systems like UC/CSU) Co…

In the meantime, do well in your courses and ring some activities outside if school that are of interest to you. Autism is no reason to have no activities.

Don’t disclose the autism on your application, it might make things worse.

Over the next 2 years, look for profiles of students with similar stats/situation who have been accepted. And then try to do something on par. There is no magic formula, but the consistent theme is that you need to stand out from the pack. And applying from India as a STEM major is a difficult task indeed. But there are a handful of students each year who are accepted to top US colleges.
