<p>It will make a difference whether you need aid or not. Internationals needing aid are in the most competitive pool.
What do your grades mean? Is 7 the highest grade possible?
Your scores are good, but not amazing for a top university like this one.</p>

<p>Sorry for the late reply…
and im not applying for finaid.
In IB, the grades are scaled from 1-7, 7 being the highest. I studeied the Indian system till 10th grade, and then switched to the international, so i can’t really formulate a GPA. since IB is college level stuff, i dont need to do AP. Getting a 6 or a 7 in an IB Higher level subject can get me the same credits as a 4 or a 5 in AP</p>
