You have a slim shot, but I'd like to see some better extra currics. Frankly, you don't look very special right now. Pretty average, actually.
Being an int'l student isn't helpful. They don't take that many, and the ones they do are stellar, like the rest of their students.
Don't feel too bad. At a school like Stanford, pretty much everyone is shooting for the stars when they apply.

I'd say you have a good chance of being accepted. One thing that I noticed when I was accepted to Stanford was that they really do look for students that are well rounded and that stand out amongst the crowd. Good luck!

With a school like Stanford, nobody is a shoo in. However, you look like you have a strong academic background, as well as interesting extracurriculars that will, like you said, make you stand out. I think that the international school in Indonesia is a great thing to have because it is so unique, especially if you mentioned it elsewhere such as in your interview or essays. You have as good a chance as anyone else, so good luck!

can you get letters from people? i don't think they are required for undergraduate but they really make all the difference for getting into graduate school. i don't even know if they accept them for undergrad -- but i would check it out. a letter from someone saying you did volunteer work is better than you saying it. they get 500,000 applications from people that are supposed to have gone to africa to build huts and there is no way to really follow up on that and applicants know that so they lie cheat and steal. honesty is the best policy and if you can get some letters to go with it that might be even better. if you go for letters -- one from your home school, one from indonesia, and one from your volunteer work. get people who you think will write the best letters. someone you know will write good things about you and do so well -- brief and to the point. you have no idea how much those people have to sort through. i know a girl that asked the wrong person for a letter. they never even sent it -- there went her med school chances.
