hey everyone,

so i got my SATII scores back today, and here they are:
maths2: 800
chem: 790
phys: 770
(should've got 800 in phys, but as you can see i choked. . .)


so, given the SATI and SATII scores, do i 'have what it takes' for my desired colleges? (which at this point are princeton, uPenn, Cornell, Columbia, Williams college, Middlebury, Dartmouth)

on that point,

does anyone know a comprehensive list of colleges which offer (relatively high amounts of) financial aid for international students.
so far i can only find a few:
MIT, Harvard University, Princeton, Yale, Williams College, Middlebury College and Dartmouth College

the bottom line is that regardless of who accepts me, without fin-aid, i wont be able to go - so the way i see it, no point aiming for colleges which dont give aid or have a bad record of giving aid to internationals.

Well your SAT II scores are MUCH better than your SAT I scores. This will certainly help at Middlebury, which allows you to substitute 3 SAT IIs for the SAT I. BUT--the SAT IIs must be in different areas of study. Not sure if the subjects you've tested in qualify as different areas of study (i.e., you have two natural sciences).
