<p>Really? </p>
<p>Sometimes I marvel that people actually think MD is that hard to get into…</p>
<p>If you can’t get into your flagship state uni with a 3.8 and 30 ACT then where the F would you go? Yes, third tier for you, since you clearly failed so hard in HS with that 3.8 there and all those APs…

<p>You will most certainly be accepted into the engineering school and probably also accepted into Honors.</p>
<p>Now scholarships are a bit trickier and I only possibly see you receiving a small one. My bro had slightly better stats in-state (v. competitive/respected public HS and slightly higher verbal/writing scores) and did not receive a scholarship though easily accepted into engineering program and Gemstone. BUT your rank is quite high for that GPA/SAT score combo, so if you come from an underrepresented area/school you may receive a small one.</p>
<p>Remember to apply by priority deadline for honors/scholarship consideration. Also if you wait you may not even be accepted into engineering (though your chances for getting in overall are still essentially 110% :P).</p>
