It sounds like you do have a good chance of getting into the colleges you mentioned. Overall your scores seem fine. You can partly compensate for the lower scores on verbal and writing if you write a really good essay, like boomer01 said. You should show your essays to somebody who can give you suggestions, if possible. If you can, you could also use an online service to help you with your essays. The website raficonsulting.com, which some of my friends have used, does editing, and they are really helpful and good especially for international students. There are also some other good ones out there that I don’t know too much about. Anyway, I think the colleges will be happy that you did well on those tests that are most closely related to what you want to study.
