Thank you for your help

I like the rest of your list. I don't think your RC section hurts much. I am glad you didn't get any lower, though. I don't know if a retake is necessary, but I was not an international applicant. Two other schools I would also suggest, that I have seen international applicants get into, are: NYU and Case Western. I think they may be two good schools to consider for the last two spots. You could also consider Michigan as well. I believe there were some international students on my interview day there. Best of luck.👍
