<p>Hi,
I a 17 year old international (from Africa) freshman in a small private LAC in USA but I haven’t enjoyed the semester so far. I plan to go to a CC for the spring semester to complete some basic requirements, then transfer to top 50 schools for engineering.
4.9/5 HS, 6.9/7 first college (med school in my country), 4.0 in current US college (1 semester), 1960 SAT (1 trial in Jan 2012), 105 TOEFL.
ECs:
HS: track and field, soccer, student senate, red cross, community service, best in math (state), national institute of high school scholars, three jobs, overall best student in school, highest score in UI national exam, and many smaller academic stuff.</p>
<p>Current college: track team, student senate (casual member), lots of clubs, community service, newspaper columnist (didn’t realy do anyhting here yet)
Courses taken: Calc 1,2, Chem 1,2, Phy1,2, Biology 1, writing, US history.</p>
<p>What are my chances of getting into top engineering schools?
Should I retake the SAT?</p>
