<p>your high SAT marks I think should cover for your lack of ib/ap/a-level/equivalent courses; however, I hesitate to evaluate your ec's</p>

<p>I'm not too sure about the scope of your company but it is definitely a plus as are the volunteer hours. I don't see many leadership activities though, which will weaken your application. Sorry to sound harsh but your application is fairly mediocre, especially for an international applicant.</p>

<p>Don't worry too much though, I'm in a similar situation lol. My school's pretty cutthroat with clubs (theres like 40~70 people in each one) so its hard to secure a position lol. If its any consolation only half of 2400's get rejected so I'd say you still have a fairly decent chance, just not spectacular since you're ORM and international (ugh... this is killer)</p>

<p>Thanks for your help, man.</p>

<p>I know my EC's a weak, and I am trying to work on that. I might startup a neighbourhood computer tutoring sort of thing, and I forgot to mention that I am a part of my school's Model UN. I will probably be in a higher position for Model UN, Mock Trial, and DECA next year (my senior year), but nothing is for certain.</p>

<p>As for my company, I have created ~9 websites so far, and I am getting projects very quickly. </p>

<p>I can get excellent references for my applications from clients as well as teachers.</p>

<p>Anyways, I appreciate your help. If anyone else has any comments, I'd greatly appreciate it.</p>
