<p>Pitthopeful – I think if you read the offical decision threads then that will give you a good idea of what it takes but then again there aren’t alot of rejections posted. I really think it is hard to say really because they take everything into consideration (EC’s, coursework, etc.) It just seems to me that a GPA of 3.5 or greater and SAT’s of 1200+ are a real good benchmark. </p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
