I recieved 2180 in my SATs

<p>My Standard X ICSE exam Best of five subjects average was 96.8%, with a hundred in computers.</p>

<p>My class XII school 1st term score Best OF Four subjects average was 88.8%</p>

<p>As for My ECs</p>

<ul>
<li>I founded a science club in my school.
*I am a prefect in my school.
*Am also part of the board of directors of my school's Nature,Maths and Space Club.
*In the ninth standard I was selected for a four year 100% scholarship to Anglo Chinese School (Independent) In Singapore, but had to decline for family reasons.</li>
</ul>

<p>As for Community Service.</p>

<p>*I helped set up a rainwater harvesting system and Self Sustained garden in my school.

<p>I was wondering how good my chances were in general?</p>

<p>@ivycollege i have applied to UCBerkley and Plan to apply to Carnegie Mellon, Stanford and Michigan Ann Harbor.
UIUC’s decision comes out on the 17th and I am extremely nervous.</p>

<p>Too late to apply to UMich. Their EA deadline ended on Nov.1.
After that they have rolling admissions for which you are a month and a half late… And its UMich, its CoE seats get filled up very quickly …</p>

6

<p>Yeah it is next-to-impossible to get in after the EA deadline. </p>

<p>As for uiuc, its a safety for you.</p>

7

<p>Why is it impossible to get into Umich after the EA deadline?</p>

<p>Yeah UIUC is a safety for you.</p>

<p>Blame their stupid admission policies!</p>

<p>Let me give you an example:
Last year, this girl with 1850 SAT (superscore in 3 attempts) and 78% in the boards, 50% in 11th, with broken english (she wanted to be chanced on cc) got in. She applied in mid-october </p>

<p>This guy with 93 and 96 in cbse 10th and 12th, 2200 sat, 2300sat2 got waitlisted. He ended up going to Brown. He applied in late december, much after the EA deadline. </p>

<p>Go figure.</p>

<p>UMich’ rolling review starts taking place on January 1.</p>

<p>If you submitted your app on Nov 1 (just after EA ended ) ur app will get reviewed on Jan.1. If you submitted it on Nov.2 then it gets reviewed on Jan.2 and so on …</p>

<p>Considering that UMich gets 300 applications per day (after Nov 1) and you apply on Dec.10 … there would be 12000 applications before u!!!</p>

<p>Hence impossible…</p>

<p>I applied on Nov 11 … :(</p>
