Hey people, I'm an hopeless international applicant who is applying to cornell with a low SAT, I'm so sure that my SAT will kill my application. (Before you ask, its a 1330)

Don't worry FooFighter. All good students do not receive superb SAT scores.

Which school are you applying to as ED?

This was posted awhile back, but I appreciate the advice, Oldfort!

hey everyone i'm an international student who applied ED
I'm in the IB program, so I sent my predicted grades, which weren't too impressive
is there any opportunity that I can allow my guidance counselor to send my updated predicted grades BEFORE their offer day? because we only had 2 months of school.... and they were the hardest lessons.... sigh...

help??

I applied to College of Engineering.

UW GPA: 3.69/4.0 (Solid upward trend though)
Weighted: 4.52/5.0
SAT CR + M: 1560
SAT II Physics: 800
SAT II Math: 800
SAT II Chem: 800
National AP Scholar (5s in AP Calculus BC, AP Physics C E&M + Mechanics, AP Chemistry, AP US History, AP US Govt + Pol, AP comp gov + pol, AP Language & Comp)

What worries me is that most of my Bs are from math and science courses.

Chances?
