Help!!! Could I get into Barnard? or NYU? Please answer!?
Im from India so we dont have GPA's so i dont know exactly how to explain my grades...
Anyway,
my SAT score is - 770(math)
700(reading)
660 (writing)
total = 2130
PSAT junior year = 98 percentile
My SAT 2's are - 680(literature)
680( Math level 2)
AP's - English language - 4
English Literature- 5
Toefl (its an exam which tests non-US citizens' proficiency in english) - 112/120
Apart from these,
my school grades have been really good in my 9th and 10th grade, but dropped quite a bit in my 11th and 12th grade (junior and senior) because of an illness that i had to go through surgery for and stuff, so i got a D in one of those exams...my councellor will be putting in an explanation in my grade transcript explaining the drop...and im really worried about that.....so could that drastically affect my application??
My resume is pretty decent - with a combination of decent social service hours, a whole lot of hours with an environmental organization that ive been working with for over 2 years, certificates for writing competitions and stuff that i have won, and been published in magazines,i am debates captain in my school and have awards for activites and competitions in my native cultural language (Hindi).
I also have given 2 grade level exams in Piano...and also in Hindustani Classical Music (Indian music). I am also doing an internship for a company (almost been 6 months now)...
I was also selected to go to the UK for a cultural exchange based on a web based project my friends and i had done that won...and some other stuff that i cant think of right now...
This is the stuff i can think of right now...and im planning on applying to these colleges -
Berkeley,
Barnard,
Carnegie Mellon,
NYU,
UCLA.
What do you think are my chances of getting into these places at the moment?
Please help!! And do advise me if there's any way i could better my chances!!
I would be extremely grateful for any feedback! Thanks!!
