Chances for Several Schools

Chance Me / Match Me
1

<p>GPA: 3.96 UW / 4.52 W
Rank: Technically 1/212, school doesn’t report rank but sends GPA distributions showing 0.5% for 4.5+
SAT: So far highest was 2080, retook in October and hoping for better score.
ACT: Took 2 ACTS. One I got a 31 Comp (34 E, 31 M, 28 R, 32 S, 10 W) and the other was 32 comp (33 E, 35 M, 24 R, 35 S, 8 W).
SAT IIs: Math II - 790, Chem - 700 (retaking Nov)
APs: Junior year took Calc BC, Chem, and Comp Sci (5s in all). Taking four APs senior year (Lit, Bio, Physics, Stat).
Very rigorous schedule.</p>

<p>Extracurriculars:

  • Science Olympiad (Junior and Senior)
  • Future Medical Leaders of America (Junior and Senior, treasurer senior year)
  • Working at Dunkin Donuts since summer before Sophomore year
  • About 40 hours of community service at Red Cross</p>

<p>Awards:

  • Principals Honor Roll (Sophomore)
  • Honor Roll (Freshman and Junior)
  • Excellence in Computer Science (Junior)
  • TrigSTAR Local Winner (math competition, Sophomore year)</p>

<p>Applying for Engineering, OOS for all of the colleges.</p>

<p>Essay: Above average
Recs: Not entirely sure, assuming they are good since my teachers know me well. One is a UMich alum.</p>

<p>I’m applying to:

  • UMich (EA)
  • UPenn (ED, yes I know it’s a big reach, more curious about my chances at the other schools)
  • Lehigh University
  • Bucknell University
  • University of Rochester
  • Northwestern University (also a big reach I know)
  • Carnegie Mellon
  • Drexel (safety)</p>

<p>Please leave any thoughts and predictions. Also, which scores do you think I should send. I know I’m definitely sending my higher ACT, but I feel like I should send my first one also for the higher Reading and Essay scores. For SATs I don’t think I’m going to send my first two (my first was a 1940), but I might send my third if it is good. For some schools, like UPenn, they say they want my entire testing history. Is it absolutely necessary that I send all of my SAT, SAT II, and ACT scores? Or is it just SAT and SATII or ACT? Can they even check if I sent everything?</p>

<p>Thank you in advance. Please let me know if I left anything important out.</p>

<p>That went down pretty fast. Bump.</p>

3

<p>What was your math score on the SAT (it is very important since you are looking at engineering)?</p>

4

<p>It was 730. I forgot to include the specific scores:

  • 730 Math, 660 CR, 690 Writing, 9 Essay</p>
5

<p>You have a VERY strong chance at umich and rochester. Carnegie is a match</p>

6

<p>I would say Carnegie is a match. you should consider cornell as well. U of Michigan is a possibility if you wrote an amaazzing personal statement.</p>

7

<p>Thanks for the responses. I was thinking about Cornell, but I visited and didn’t really like it too much.</p>

8

<p>penn is too far. ur ECs could use a lot of work and more leadership roles</p>

9

<p>Bump. I’m still curious about which scores to send. Any help would be appreciated.</p>
