<p>dude, i think you have a good chance as they will definately consider your situation…</p>
<p>I live in london, but i am a full-blooded lebanese, with french and lebanese citizenship.
My EC’s included lots of sports achievements in ski, rugby, football (the game where you actually use your foot), mountain climbing…
Another important factor is languages and culture… being fluent in more than one language and being able to bring diversity to the student body…
As inuendo said your achievements in GCSE and A-level are also important, i took both (am taking A-level now)</p>
<p>In general i don’t see there being specific differences for middle-eastern applicants, they will just analyse you as an individual, looking at your accomplishments compared to your situation…</p>
