Hi, I’m a junior in high school right now and i’m starting to worry about where i’m going to end up after graduating from high school.(I feel like i’m not going to end up anywhere… T-T) I’m planning to apply for Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, Drexel University, FL Institute of Tech, Embry-Riddle Dayota Beach and some other schools.
My GPA isn’t too good, 3.4 on 4.0 scale. I took SAT once without studying and only got 1580… (i know i’m stupid…) But I’ve only been in U.S. for 4 years now and would that make a difference? Also I am really passionate about robotics competitions, I participated in VEX Robotics Competition and FIRST Robotics Competition for 3 years and even dropped my all other extra curricular activities just to work on robotics because it is very time consuming. I’m also a captain this year. Will it make a difference if i actually write an essay about my passion in robotics and submit it?


is there any other school with good software engineering program? I’ve been looking for other ones for a while but software engineering degree seems too new so i couldn’t find that many…
I know that all the schools i listed are hard for me to get in with my stats right now…


Thanks in advance :)
