Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I have applied to U Penn, Cornell, Duke, Princeton and Yale for the coming fall.
Below are some of my info.</p>

<p>Involvement at school including community services:
Three(3) community service clubs
Engineering club
Homework program
Honor program
Champion homework center
Student council representative
aeronautical club
Basketball team
Tennis
School magazine
Music club president
Peer counselor
Prefect</p>

<p>Involvement outside of school:
taught mathematics to low income students
tutoring (15hr/wk)
I also have quite alot work experiences due to financial situation at home and have been mainly supporting myself for a year now, which allowed me to experience much of the world that otherwise I would not have had the chances to experience</p>

<p>Academics:
GPA: 3.6
I have received 2 merits and 8 honors </p>

<p>SAT score:
Reading : 500
Writing : 500
Math : 770
Biology molecular : 650
Mathematics II : 660</p>

<p>I am quite nervous about the poor SAT reading and writing score I received; however, English is not my first but third language although I've been living in a third world English speaking country for 6 years. Do you think the colleges will take that into consideration? What are my chances? Please let me know your view</p>

<p>They are all high reaches for you. Your Extra-Curricular activities are strong, but your GPA is not competitive and your SAT Scores makes your chances to getting in even lower. If you give me any possible majors I can suggest schools that are a better fit to you. If you get attached to one of these schools, go ahead and give it a shot. But keep in mind your GPA and SAT relative to the hundreds of 4.0 GPA, 2200+ applicants to top schools. Despite the fact that English is not your first language and you’ve been living in a third world English speaking country, this cannot be justified at schools like Princeton or Yale.</p>
