<p>Your gpa is low and your sat’s are average. Not sure which school you are going for but I would put you in the high match/low reach. Good luck</p>

3

<p>engineering.</p>

4

<p>and just wondering… what is a good GPA for NEU… cause i all see on their site is a weighted average.</p>

5

<p>i think you’ll do fine. your sats are par and gpa is okay, but keep in mind that northeastern isn’t a first tier school, so i think you have a good chance!!</p>

6

<p>Sprevite, what constitutes a tier 1 school? Is there requirements? If you are using us news aren’t the first 150 schools tier 1? I’m kinda curious</p>

7

<p>um, well i was just going off the US news rankings, and i would qualify anything 1-50 rank a first tier school. that’s all, i didn’t mean to insult your school.</p>

8

<p>maybe i used the wrong word, i meant like “the top top close ivy schools”. northeastern is a great school and i’m applying, so yah.</p>

9

<p>I’m not attacking you, I’m kinda curious because I see tiers being thrown around cc all the time. Good luck by the way.</p>

10

<p>thanks, how do you like it?</p>

11

<p>I like it a lot. I’m international business with Spanish and either mathematics or political science haven’t decided yet though. Feel free to pm if you have specific questions.</p>

12

<p>Oh and to the op since you are female and want engineering that definitely boosts your chances. Good luck!</p>
