<p>I am applying to some top colleges
University of Chicago (EA)
Johns Hopkins
Cornell
Tufts</p>
<p>What are my chances of admission in these? Also, which would be most likely to give me financial aid? I am also eligible for Fedral aid also as I am a US citizen, educated in India.</p>
<p>Also, my teacher recommenation letters are quite good and so is the school report</p>
<p>maybe Cornell cause it's an Ivy...don't really know about fin aid at these schools.
still I can't realize how come you had an 800 for your sat and only a 660 for sat2?
I mean. I've made 3 stupid misakes on the sat and got a 740. got an 800 on math 2c thoug. still a mistery to me.
if you'll retake it it won't kill you, if not.... it depends. you have good scores overall, so I don't think you cold consider that score being the reason for en eventual rejectance. calm down and work hard on your essays ;)</p>
<p>Thanks,
I will be definitely retaking. I myself am unsure as to how i did so Horribly.
I will study this time around and hopefully will get an 800!!</p>
<p>oh I'm not very well at telling people their chances. don't want to make you feel better and then get an unfavourable answer(although I hope that does not happen) and I also don't want to disappoint you when in reality you could have a great chance. admission in big univs is always a big lotery, but if you have good essays and very good recs I think you have fairly good chances. although I'm not sure about your CR sat score... same problem I have :( dunno.
still, hope everything is going to be alright :)</p>
<p>I would say that your chances at University of Chicago are excellent. It accepts nearly 45% of its applicants so it is really not that competitive when compared to other schools like MIT that only accept about 9% or less. Cornell is a much larger reach though but out of all the ivy leagues I think it is the easiest to get into.</p>
<p>at first I wanted to apply to Cornell myself, but then I realized their fin aid for intls is lousy. so I've applied to Brown ED :D . possibly to Darmouth as another Ivy if I don't get in ED. :)</p>
