Do top engineering schools recognize PLTW engineering courses when making admissions decisions? I feel that these classes display my interest in engineering as well as my experience with engineering (the capstone class I will take in senior year allows students to solve a problem and design a product with a limited budget).
Hello! I am a freshman EE major at Yale who took PLTW in high school. I definitely think PLTW helped from the perspective that I was taking classes that showed that engineering was something I definitely wanted to do. However, I don’t think it serves as a “bump” in the admissions process; I think it just helps them see that you have an interest in engineering.
