i hate rookies

<p>chances at pennst UP, rose hulman, rpi, udel, virginiatech, rowan, rutgers</p>

<p>1200 SAT 670M 530V
92.435 gpa
14 honrs and ap by the time i graduate
decent ECs
state and natl DECA qualifier
122/769 rank
decent essay
decent rec
chemE major</p>

<p>Presuming that your 92.435 equates to a 3.35 average unweighted, and that with your 14 honors and 1 AP course, you are therefore around a 3.7 to 3.75 weighted GPA, I’d estimate as follows:</p>

<p>Penn State (University Park)–Match to Slight Reach
Rose Hulman–Slight Reach (borderline GPA and test scores)
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute–Slight Reach to Reach (need higher test score in SAT Verbal)
University of Delaware–Match
Virginia Tech–Match
Rowan–don’t know
Rutgers–Safe Match</p>

<p>how does a 92.335 translate into a 3.35? i thought it’d be higher…</p>

<p>Depends upon whether you are using a US, Canadian, or overseas GPA scale–and whether the person’s honors scale is included in the number.</p>

<p>Presuming that a 90 to 100 is an A scale, then I’m going too low for this candidate–but if the scale is as used overseas then I’m right on. There they use the honors course designation in determining the number–and a 100 is actually quite possible (equal to a 4.0 unweighted).</p>

<p>Unfortunately, I can’t tell where the person is, so I went as conservative as possible (probably incorrectly). If the person is from the US or from Canada, then a 92.435 would be a 3.65 average unweighted–and the weighted GPA would be 3.98 or so. In this case they would be a Match at RPI and Rose-Hulman and Penn State, and a safe match at all the others.</p>

<p>its about a 3.7 according to my GC, but it is impossible to convert actually. by 14 honros and ap i meant combined so its 6 ap and 8 honors</p>

<p>ohhh okay gotcha</p>
