<p>Well Pitt really does not like to see failing on anyone’s transcript, regardless of the class. Especially considering how much schools like SSOE emphasize well-roundedness (taking electives from A&S), it would not look good to be doing that poorly in unrelated classes. The hypothetical 1800 SAT also doesn’t help because that means the M+CR is only 1200 which is around the bare minimum for Pitt to accept for A&S (and SSOE is much more stringent).</p>
<p>The GPA as it is right now is still on the low side. Pitt says Academic GPA is a “Very Important” factor in selection, along with rigor of course load and SAT/ACT scores. In 2010-2011, 67% of Pitt’s accepted students had a GPA of 3.75 or higher. Only 9% of accepted applicants had a GPA of 3.24 or lower (10% at 3.49 or lower). And only 35% of students had 599 or lower on the SAT CR (22% for SAT Math and 39% for Writing). As it stands, I’d say you have a good chance at a branch, but are a long shot from Main, especially since you’re in state.</p>
<p>By the way, got those numbers from this report: <a href=“http://www.ir.pitt.edu/cds/documents/CDS2010-11PittsburghCampus.pdf[/url]”>http://www.ir.pitt.edu/cds/documents/CDS2010-11PittsburghCampus.pdf</a></p>
