<p>Hi all,</p>
<p>I am an International student, currently studying 12th Grade in the United Arab Emirates in a school which follows Indian curriculum CBSE (Central Board of Secondary Education).</p>
<p>I just wanted to know what my chances are in getting admission into Worcester Polytechnic Institute, California Polytechnic State University or Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute for Aeronautical Engineering.</p>
<p>My school does not give GPA grading, if it gave then my grading MIGHT (coz there is not accurate grading for the Indian curriculum) look like this:-
9th – 3.7+ / 4.0 (coz I got A’s in all my subjects)
10th – 3.7/4.0+ (coz I got A’s in all my subjects)
11th – 3.2-3.4 / 4.0 (coz I got a few A’s and a few B’s)</p>
<p>I had also recieved a half-fee scholarship in grade 11.</p>
<p>ACTIVITIES :
I have been selected to attend the Global Young Leaders’ Conference (GYLC) in Washington/New York this year.
Swimming
Singing
Made Robot for science exhibition
Created a presentation on the periodic table
Helped the team in coming 3rd in an inter-school robot competition
Part of the school Anti-Smoking Committee
I have been learning Indian Carnatic Music vocal for over 10 years and have give a 2 and half hour concert. I have also been learning Carnatic Music violin for over 3 years. </p>
<p>SAT SCORES:
MATH - 700
CR - 600
Planning to give it again to improve my score (hopefully 1350+).</p>
<p>Going to give SAT II's in November. Will get above 750 in maths, physics and chemistry.</p>
<p>Teacher Recommendations will be really good. Not sure what the school counsellor will write (but got info from previous school mates in US universities that we usually get really good recs).</p>
<p>Am going to start working on the essays when the apps are released and HOPEFULLY they should be good.</p>
<p>Will appreciate all responses. good as well as bad.</p>
<p>NOTE : Do you think i could apply for early decision or early action to any one of them</p>
<p>Thanks all.</p>
