Sat Subject: Maths II 670 Chem 690 Physics 720
Do the scores even qualify me for applying???</p>
<p>The probability is better than winning the lottery if you apply and zero of you don’t. Isn’t it? What have you got to lose? Time, money and some hope. </p>
<p>I know you wouldn’t have posted unless you felt odds were against you. How can any of us give you advice not knowing anything other than your SAT scores?</p>
<p>By the way, I just watched your guitar works on YouTube. You ARE talented. :D. Good luck to you.</p>
<p>(OT: am a huge fan of the King and his Lucille.)</p>
<p>googling names can be so misleading… 
Angad and Uday are different people in those videos…
Although there is a video of me playing holy wars(not the lead one)</p>
<p>As for my ECs
Guitar (Grade 3 Rockschool) and some performances
Vocals(few performances) and keyboard (School level only)<br>
Intern at an NGO(IYCN)</p>
<p>Not so important ones: Table tennis, Computer Club</p>
<p>That’s it !!!</p>
<p>Sorry, I had to bing you since you gave very little to work on. </p>
<p>I know someone who got into Brown with scores similar to yours. Who knows? If you have written good essays and planets are well aligned anything can happen.</p>
<p>No chance with those subject test scores, tbh. Do you need aid?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>+1.</p>
<p>I think both Stanford and Cornell consider Jan test results too. Why not try the subjects again? or the SAT?
idk which one is more important.</p>
<p>@angaduday - if you’re done with essays and have 150$ to spare, apply. we’re just a bunch of kids applying to college like you - our opinions don’t really matter, so we can’t chance you. That’s the college’s job, so cross your fingers and hope for the best :)</p>
<p>@Princeton dreams: actually, i know people with similar scores in both those colleges.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Speak for yourself bud. Some of us are not; not that we know any better. Some of us are already in college Also, haven’t you noticed the presence of parents on India forum this year? :eek:</p>
<p>There is nothing here to demonstrate that you would be an exception from the general trend. </p>
<p>For Cornell, I’d say an acceptance is extremely unlikely- the basis of this is the 2016 ED decision thread here on CC. No poster on CC save one was accepted with anything below 2150 (who was not a URM). Looking at only Asians- few were below 2200. Judging solely from the CC decision thread and the downwards spike in the acceptance rate for ED applicants to Cornell, your chances at RD are minimal.</p>
<p>I think that Cornell’s application process is somewhat less subjective than Stanford’s so you may stand a higher chance at Stanford; but as an Indian it is but a minuscule one and statistically less than your chance at Cornell.</p>
<p>If I were you, I’d apply and forget about it. :)</p>
<p>I second yeahiamthatguy’s views. Go ahead and apply. When you don’t apply you have no chance at all and when you do you at least have some chance right?</p>
<p>By all means apply but if you are set on studying in the United States and you are interested in science or engineering, take a look at [Association</a> of Independent Technological Universities: AITU](<a href=“http://www.theaitu.org%5DAssociation”>http://www.theaitu.org) schools, particularly some of the lesser known ones, Stevens Institute, Illinois Tech and so on. These have very good Engineering and science programs and the admission requirements are a match for your SAT scores.</p>
<p>There is a high chance in Stanford - the importance for EC is much higher as they look for a well rounded person. How about you volunteer hrs or community service. A good impact on that could make or break a deal. My friends daughter from TISB got in because of that. Colleges also look at which high school you are from? Are you from an IB program or CBSE?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>High chance? No.</p>
<p>As for the value of ECs, all top universities look for well-roundedness, so that argument is utterly invalid. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mean to dissuade the OP from applying, but giving false hope to someone by rating their chances as being ‘high’ is a very cruel thing to do, as students every year realize when the decisions come out.
By virtue of being an international alone, your chances are never ‘high’ with top colleges. Just do your job to the best of your abilities, apply and leave the selection process to the adcoms.</p>
<p>Yeah, even I was surprised by caambitiousmom’s answer, but I chose to let it pass :p</p>
<p>As for ECs … remember that the university is ‘building’ a class. If you shine in one of the spots, you are in. If not, then … well they have so many other applicants to choose from.</p>
<p>As for the rest,</p>
