Chance Me / Match Me
1

<p>I am an international (Korean) student looking for some advice. What are my chances at the Ivies and some other schools? Please, I need as many opinions as I can get.</p>

<p>Please remember that as an international student, my chances are significantly reduced. (Most colleges’ acceptance rate of international students are about 10% of their total acceptances if I am not mistaken.) Not to mention that most Korean students have stellar grades and SAT scores. (This is where being asian is a disadvantage.)</p>

<p>Also, please don’t sugar-coat anything - that would only falsely get my hopes up…</p>

<br>

<br>

<p>Reach: Harvard (like any asian…), Princeton, MIT, UChicago, UPenn, Stanford, Amherst
Match: UC Berkeley, UCLA, Rice
Safety: NYU, University of Minnesota, University of Texas Austin</p>

<br>

<br>

<p>If you could take the time to answer any of these questions, you would instantly be characterized as a kind and awesome person by me. No but seriously, I need help.</p>

<p>You seem like a special student. You were born in Korea, raised in Germany, and lived in Israel. Idk that should help your chances, and your grades are way above average. You should have a fair chance buddy def apply to those places I think with you you could seal it with a nice essay about your life experiences or the interview.</p>

<p>Good chance at all schools except the upper end ivies, which are very difficult for almost everyone.</p>

4

<p>For MIT, I need to submit SAT subject tests in math and science. Since I got a 690 on Bio E, should I retake it?</p>

5

<p>yes try to get above 700, preferably above a 750</p>
