<p>What do you think my chances are of getting into Ivy League universities + Duke, UChicago, Stanford and MIT? </p>
<p>International student
My SAT superscore is 2150 /730 math, 670 reading, 750 writing/
SAT II Math and Physics are both 750+</p>
<p>My GPA is perfect and my ECs are strong
I would need financial aid</p>
<p>Thank you in advance!</p>
<p>All Reaches unfortunately. Definitely try to get your SATI score up.</p>
<p>Thanks for the opinion. Any other thoughts?</p>
<p>Admission into those schools is very competitive and hundreds of kids each year with perfect GPAs and high SAT scores get rejected all the time. You have a good chance but nothing is certain. I do agree that getting your SAT score up another 100 points wouldn’t hurt.</p>
<p>Those schools are all reaches for anyone who applies.</p>
<p>You are competitive, but you’d be more so with a better CR on the SAT.</p>
<p>Have you tried the ACT? Foreign students often do better on it than on the SAT.</p>
<p>I don’t see anything unusual about your situation, but you got me to click on this thread. You have a bright future in internet marketing waiting for you after college. ;-)</p>
<p>Haha thanks DreamSchlDropout… Thanks to you too hopeful360.</p>
<p>Yeah, I know those schools are reaches for almost anyone. As for my SAT score, I am confident in raising the mathematics, but not the reading so retaking may backfire.</p>
<p>I am a minority when it comes to nationality and, moreover, I live in a town of 20,000 people. Neverhteless, I have accomplished a lot given my situation when it comes to extracurriculars. So, this might be my biggest advantage?</p>
<p>Provided I write perfect essays and get perfect recommendations, do you think I still have a chance?</p>
<p>How is your situation “unusual”?</p>
<p>Sadly, your status as an international student will hurt you during the admission process. What is your nationality?</p>
<p>I thought my situation was unusual because of my underrepresented country, which is a developing country in Eastern Europe. I may be wrong. </p>
<p>Sadly or not, I cannot change my nationality.</p>
<p>You definitely have a chance.</p>
<p>Being a foreign admit will make getting financial aid difficult, though. I recommend you also give some consideration to top universities in other countries that may prove less expensive.</p>
<p>Thank you all for the responses! </p>
<p>I’ll do my best in writing my essays. As for the SAT, I will consider retaking but I am not sure I will. @DreamSchlDropout I know it will be very hard but it has been my aim for a few years and I will give it a shot. Nevertheless, I am apllying to universities in other countries, as well.</p>
