Please chance me.

<p>I'm a Singaporean student who really wants to get an Cornellian education, but I did not do very well for most of my exams. My stats are as listed below:</p>

<p>A-level Score: Maths - A, Physics - C, Economics - C, General Paper(English) - C5, Project Work - Band 2, Chinese at O-level - A2</p>

<p>My JC exam results are normally Cs, with an occasional B or D.</p>

<p>But I think I'm at least top 15% of the class.</p>

<p>My SAT 1 score is 2050, 710 for critical reading, 790 for maths, 550 for writing. And I'll be retaking in November to push up my CR and writing.</p>

<p>I'm taking my SAT in Oct and I think I can get 800 for math 2, 800 for physics and 700+ for chemistry.</p>

<p>For the 2 years of my JC life, I was an active member of the fencing team, representing the school for quite a few competitions and one international competition in another country. I won a team gold medal for a national inter-school competition. I planned the fencing induction camp for my juniors during my second year at JC and was team captain at some of the competitions I competed in. I was also a member of the school entreprenuership society, running the school bookshop and represented the school in two national competition.</p>

<p>My teachers would most likely give me an excellent recommendation. I will not be applying for financial aid.</p>

<p>I am very interested in pursuing a degree in Food Science/Technology or Business Administration. Do you think I have a chance?</p>
