I am an applicant this year, so I don't have much experience, but comparing to the past application results posted here, I'd say the places you are applying to are reasonable. Based on your profile, I suspect you might be from the country of my origin ("the service" if you get the hint). If you don't mind could you share with me where you took the subject test? As far as I am aware, there are no test administered in the country I am thinking of. You are welcome to send me a personal message.

Thank you for your comment. I'm sorry but I cant send a personal message because of my privacy..I have taken the subject test at Duksung Woman's University, Pyeongsaeng Kyoyukwon?, South Korea, September 19 this year. I'll keep my fingers crossed for your admission. Thanks a lot.

No problem at all. I was rather suggesting pm in case you didn't want to post it here publically (you can send messages to the users on this forum by clicking their username if you weren't aware). Anyways, thanks for the info. You have good test scores no doubt; I wish you good luck as well.
