Columbia is one of the most, if not THE most competitive schools in the USA. Thsi year I noticed they had over 19,000 applicants - they accepted 400 or so by early decision, and the other 600 who are accepted will be picked from the 19,000 - so, that means if you among the best students in the USA, you would have a 600/19000 chance (about 3%) of getting in. Of course, if you dont have near 4.0 GPA, and 2200+ SATs then forget it.
You can start working on this by upgrading your English skills. They arent going to take anyone who doesn't write English near-perfectly. Stop using that computer BS language this second and focus on your goal and you will have a chance. If you don't get into Columbia, then you will get into some other good school and maybe pick up a scholarship!
Good luck.

columbia only accepts rich, snotty, upper east side students, not ghetto thugs like yourself.
