<p>Which Universities of Colleges should I be aiming for? (Here is a quick layout of myself)</p>
<ol>
<li>3.87 GPA (unweighted)
My school is a small school in Asia offering only two AP courses (Physics & Calculus) towards seniors.</li>
<li>I took one SAT and got 2190 or
W:780
CR: 730
M: 680</li>
<li>I took two SAT II's
SAT Literature: (taken cold) 670
SAT US History: 720</li>
<li>I took two AP courses by myself and took the AP Exams
got a 4 for AP US GOV and a 3 for AP US HIS</li>
<li><p>I've got a myriad of extracurriculars, starting from varsity soccer & basketball teams, orphanage, community service etc...</p></li>
<li><p>Also I've got quite a few awards, ACSI distinguished scholar, Honor Roll student, Most outstanding speaker (for debate)</p></li>
<li><p>and most importantly, I need to get lots of scholarships(preferably a full schollarship) but I am an International Student...</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Your SAT is only slightly low for the Ivies and other top schools, but I would reach for almost anything including the Ivies, etc. This means you could apply to a few reaches (Ivies, etc.) some matches… these will come down to what you want in a school and a few safeties.</p>
<p>What are you looking for in a school, size wise, geographically…? Your stats/extracurriculars are great, there are just too many schools to name without knowing more information about you.</p>
<p>Hmmm… Actually I haven’t quite made up my mind yet… I’m aiming for an Ivy school though… if that fails (hopefully it won’t ^^; I was thinking of somewhere in the northeastern part of the US. Although i am going to apply to William and Mary</p>
<p>Here’s the colleges I’m looking at, are they ok? Do I have too many reaches?? Could someone help me narrow my list down?
thanx a bunch!!</p>
<p>Also!! I need almost like a full scholarship as my family can’t afford to pay for my education… I’m also an international student ^^;;</p>
