@brian2746 I’m not sure if this would help my application but I am a son of legal Immigrants who worked there way to becoming legal citizens. All my math and Science classes have A’s in them. My GPA is 4:0 (unweighted) 4.121 (weighted, above the average acceptance rate). I also am rank 1 in my class of 396 and from SD (so the education is not the best). 1 quick thing how big of a role does being a URM play in my application. For instance the average Black ACT score is 17 where as the average white ACT score is 22 so would they compare me to the average black student that applies or the just the average student? I’m exactly sure how AA works. I don’t necessarily agree with AA but i’m just wondering. Also if I’m the only applicant from SD would that guarantee my chances of getting in? Thanks for the response it means alot!
