Hey, I am only 2 yrs. here in the United States, so I am having a lot of trouble with my English. I came here as a sophomore in high school, and first year, i didn’t take any ap classes, as i didn’t know the concept. I also did not take the aps in the second year because of my english and i had to study so hard to do good in normal classes. My critical reading sat score is pretty bad too. other things seem pretty fine to me. Here are my stats-

SAT: math 710
critical reading 520 I will sit for another sat (3rd time) and i guess ill get 600
Writing 660
GPA: 4.0 W & UW (Have 9 Adv classes and taking 3 aps senior year)
EC: Beta Club Member
Men of Distinction Vice President
International Club
Book Club
Chama Club
Volunteer : 80+ hours

I should be able to get a good essay ready by constant revisions… I will surely have great recommendations, both from my teacher and counselor.

Job in Kroger (Still Doing it)
Race- Asian

Anybody? will they consider my situation as a new person in US? It is really my dream school. Please help me out here. And I just want the brutal truth. If you know it’s not good enough, just say it’s not. Thanks
