<p>ok, I have all my application completed, etc....and am debating on the major choice...
i was thinking of applying to engineering, but it might be way over my ability.</p>

<p>my record:
sat math - 800
CR - 650
writing - 600
sat chem - 760
phys - 730
math 2c - 790</p>

<p>and i have basically, straight A's for all my math and science courses
for math, i have taken BC last year and got 5. now i am taking college level course. for science, i am taking all ap's (took phys c last yr and chem and bio this year)
but like...straight b's for all my english courses.</p>

<p>BUT i am an international student with english as a second language....
what are my chances if my english grades are really sucky??
or should i pick a different major and increase my chance? (or will it even increase my chance if i pick a differnet major?)</p>

<p>hmm thats interesting. your cr isnt bad. if your science is as good as you say then id think your chances are good. and why would you pick a major that you arent even interested in just to get in? pick something you like.</p>

<p>if your an international student with no residency then your chances of getting in are much less. but if your instate its good</p>
