<p>Soooo the wait for March 31rst is KILLING ME.
Figured I'd ask you guys what you thought my chances of getting into Y, H, G or C were?
I realize i've aimed for the moon and will probably not get in to any of the schools, but backup's mcgill, so i'm safe. Figured I had a chance at Berkeley but just got rejected.
THE PROFILE:
i am an international student (both french and american, fully trilingual), live in france, perfect gpa, good extracurriculars. SAT scores: 650 math, 690 reading, 660 writing. subject tests- 800 french, 800 spanish. essays on:
1. living abroad (i've lived in the US, spain, and france) and the differences between cultures, the experiences, etc..........
2. going backpacking around europe last summer and all the things i learned along the way.
short answer on a "work experience" interning at the local newspaper. that internship also gave me the opportunity to publish a one page article in the newspaper, which i sent in as supplementary material.
recommendations are good.
both alumni interviews for G and H went well, the G one said I had a perfect profile for the school of Foreign Service and told my mom i wa a "delight", and the H one said she'd gladly recommend me (even in the future),that she really hoped I got in (interview lasted 2 hours and a half), and insisted that i keep her "updated".
So.
What do you think?</p>

<p>it was wrong choice, considering you're trilingual. it shows, you've done nothing. not too good.</p>
<p>Yeah, your scores are relatively low (except the lang subject tests... but since you're trilingual, that doesn't actually show much achievement), but maybe they evaluate stats differently for international students. Dunno. You have a shot--a distant shot, like all of us, but a shot.</p>
<p>I hate to put it so bluntly, but your chances for admission to the aforementioned universities are extremely low.</p>
