I’m getting ready to apply for college this summer and I’ve made a short list of schools that I am interested in and am wondering if I can get any feedback.
My stats:
SAT: 660 Writing 790 Math 610 Writing
Subject Tests: Physics 670 Math II 710
PSAT: 193
ACT: 32
GPA: On my school weighted 100 point scale: 101.1
On 4 point: 4.0 UW 4.4 W
I’ve also taken 7 AP courses, all the ones offered at my school and plan to take 5 next year. I am in my school’s band and have an important leadership position. I do community service through band, church and my sister’s gymnastics establishment. I also have a job working at a summer camp. And I have recently divorced parents (I read that family circumstances should be considered. I am also applying for the QuestBridge College Match Scholarship among others.
I want to go into Engineering, either civil or electrical but am open to new choices. The schools that I am interested in are, in no order,
California Berkeley
Illinois Urbana Champagne
Michigan
Purdue
USC
UCLA
I am just wondering my chances of acceptance at these schools. And my chances, if any, of possible merit scholarships at these schools that I could attain. Thank you for any input.
