What are my chances at these schools?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hello everyone. I’m senior in high school. I wanted to ask where would you
advice me to apply for computer science. My sat score: 800 math and 440
verbal. The reason for my bad verbal score is that I am an international
student (I came to Usa from Poland about 2 years ago). I am going to take
TOEFL and Sat II in math IIC, physics and writing. My GPA is 4.0, class rank
16th (out of 278) and still going up. I have 5 in ap calc exam and are
taking Ap comp sci, ap us history, ap bio and independent study in bc calc
this year. I am a member of National Honor Society, website design club,
Math Honor Society, Chess Club, Math Team,NJ Math League (last year I was
second in group V in Bergen County(individual score - my high school had
first place)). I was also volunteering in public library and church. Could
anyone tell me which school would be a good fit for me? Thanks everyone for
advice.
What do you think about my list? Could you
evaluate my chances?

<p>if you raise your SAT V by 200 points, and get it in the 600s, you have a shot at all these schools, but for your shot right now, with your current scores:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>MIT-no</p></li>
<li><p>Columbia University (NYC)-no</p></li>
<li><p>Rutgers University in NB-yes</p></li>
<li><p>Stevens Inst of Tech-yes</p></li>
<li><p>Cornell Univ.-probably not</p></li>
<li><p>University of Penn.-no</p></li>
<li><p>Stanford-no</p></li>
<li><p>Princeton-no</p></li>
<li><p>Brown University-no</p></li>
<li><p>Lehigh University-yes</p></li>
</ol>

<p>I agree with neelesh on this one. Unless you can get your verbal 600+, cornell, penn, columbia, and brown are far, far reaches.</p>
