<p>My goodness, you're a machine. I think it goes without saying that you've got a good change (except for the int'l thing..)</p>

<p>Your SAT verbal is on the low side..lower than the 25th percentile at Swarthmore but Swarthmore admissions is not numbers driven. Your not wanting aid is a plus since I think Swarthmore is not need-blind for internationals (although Swarthmore does give aid to 57% of the international population). You have to show a strong interest in your application in the college and why you want to study there. The 'Why Swarthmore' essay must be well thought out and well-written.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>
