Okay, so here it goes.

I have done my 12th. I have simultaneously applied for Winter (Jan 17), Summer (June 17) & Fall sessions in differen Universities. I have made up my mind to go in either fall or summer.

  1. University of Michigan - Comp Sci Class of 2021 (summer 17-June 17) ACCEPTED (YAY!!)
  2. University of Wisconsin Madison- Comp Sci Class of 2021 (Winter 17- Jan 01) Accepted.
  3. Michigan State University- Comp Sci (Winter 17) Accepted
  4. University of Texas, Austin (Applied for Fall 17)
  5. UCLA, UCB , UCSD, GA Tech, University of Southern California (Applied for Fall 17)

My Stats:

  1. 12th - 95 % aggregate. (95/100) CBSE 2016
  2. 11th - 83 % aggregate (school had ridiculously tough assessment procedures)
  3. 10th - 10 CGPA
  4. 9th - 9.2 CGPA
  5. SAT - 1510/1600. (770M + 740 W&R)
  6. Old sat in 2015 for 2220/2400.
  7. Subject Test 780 m2, 780 phy.
  8. TOEFL 106 (funny thing is some illiterate idiot next to me was reading out loud his reading passages and irritating me)

@slightlymad congratulations on your acceptances. What kind of extracurricular activities did you have?

7

@IamINTP I got into a lot of different activities. I never focused on it being related to my academic major or career.

8

@slightlymad So I see. Good luck with the rest of your decisions! :slight_smile:

What is your top choice?

9

from top to bottom. Berkeley, LA, U Southern Cal, GA Tech, Michigan, Texas Austin, San Diego.

10

@slightlymad that is a really strong profile. I am sure that you will get into most UC’s.
Just a question, with this profile why don’t you apply to the Ivies?( Though UMich is a public Ivy) You shouldn’t settle for something lesser than that.
BTW Congratulations on your acceptances.

11

These universities are like titbits for you. You will get accepted to most of them.

12

@piku1998 (my guess 1998 is your DOB) this apart. Go check the profile of students into ivy leagues. These universities are tougher to get into than you think. Their (ivy leagues) 25 (avg scores of 75 percent students) percentiles starts from 1520 and 75 percentile (avg score of TOP 25 percent students) ends up at perfect 1600. I have seen such CVs like AP classes attended. 3 APs tests like 5/5, SATs like 1570/1600,awards from Nobel Laureates and having PATENTS filed up in their 11th or 12th grade, Internships from such companies, Summer schools from IVY/MIT/Stanford. IVIES ARE WAY TOO COMPETITIVE. I have seen rejections of my fellow pals.

check out the scores:
http://www.prepscholar.com/sat/s/colleges/Yale-admission-requirements

what you see as 8-16% acceptance rate of ivies is from a pool of very very selective candidates (along with some dreamers having 1300s). Beyond that the acceptance is all the more tough for Int’nl students

13

just type prepscholar yale and click the first link @piku1998

14

Berkeley acceptance is as hard as an ivy acceptance for international students, but all the best. May the odda be ever, in your favour.

15

@slightlymad Well, that is true indeed. It is just your profile, which made me spurt out my opinion.
Also, never apply to a university with a pre-condition that you will get accepted. At least, that is what I believe.

Anyway, good luck with your admission decisions.

I’ve applied to like 20 colleges which include:

UC - Berkeley, LA, SD, SB
NYU
Cornell
USC
UT Austin
Rutgers
Ohio State
UIUC
U Florida
Fordham
UW Seattle…

I just got accepted to Fordham with a $15,000 scholarship and also to Rutgers (waiting for scholarship offer). Both were EA. Now waiting for other decisions to roll in.

My stats:
SAT - 1480 (M 770 RW 710)
ACT - 32
TOEFL - 114
SAT II - Sucks really bad. Math 1 (690) Literature (620) World History (600)
GPA - In 9th and 10th I got 9.8 CGPA and in 11th ~85% (CBSE)
Class Rank - 1/20 (Yeah my school has a ridiculously tough checking system in 11th grade)

@setushah10 What is your intended major?

I am just wondering, did you send your SAT 2 scores to every school?

I know it won’t hurt your chances in UCs and UIUC because they don’t consider SATII scores, I am not sure about the rest.

The CBSE percentage is alright, because I guess most schools in USA know about the grade deflation in 11th grade.

@IamINTP My preferred major is Economics (it is the most popular major in like 70-80% of the colleges I applied to).
My second choice major is either International Relations or Global Studies.
World History I haven’t sent anywhere but the other 2 I have sent everywhere.
The reason why I sent them is because I’ve opted for Humanities in 11th and 12th and so I don’t have Math as a subject so it’s a serious deficiency.
I might even have to take extra calculus courses in college lol.

@SetuShah10 So I see. o.o

All the best man!
