<p>I Plan to do mechanical Engineering </p>
<p>Where should I Apply ? </p>
<p>ALL INDIANS HELP ME OUT</p>
<p>well, do u want to stay in india or come to the u.s?</p>
<p>Is it Sarcasm … or an honest question ? </p>
<p>Yes I do want to go to U.S. </p>
<p>Please . I am already getting screwd at home … no more jokes !</p>
<p>ok, ok, with ur scores i would aim for schools right below the ivy league - if you are interested in medicine, try for schools with dual degree guaranteed admission B.S./M.D. programs like NEOUCOM, Howard, UC - DAP, OSU - EAP, Northwestern -HPME, Drexel, U. Miami - HPME, Case -PPSP, etc.</p>
<p>But since u r interested in mechanical engr, you probably dont want to do a B.s/M.D. program</p>
<p>In that case, I would go for schools like Northwestern, Case Western, UCLA, Duke, maybe even MIT. And Cornell and Dartmouth are easier to get into than the other ivy league schools. All these schools are at high levels, so they all have exceptional mech. engr. programs.</p>
<p>B.s/M.D. program ? – whats dis ?</p>
<p>I am looking at a 4 year bachelors degree … may be extend it to a 5 year with a double major</p>
<p>The B.S./M.D. program allows one to have a guaranteed seat in medical school. So you don’t have to apply during your undergraduate degree/college time, and the seat is reserved for you from until you finish high school to starting med school after finishing college - at shortest, it’s a six year program</p>
<p>Do u think with my marks and scores i will get in these Uni’s … its like they want 4.0 GPA … i don’t know mine … since it is CBSE … which i feel it tough … and i dont know how to convert them </p>
<p>I want to do a double major in IR/Economics and Mech Eng …
But a Strong Engineering program is a Must</p>
<p>I think you have a fair chance at duke, UC Berkley, Dartmouth, and cornell. You’ll be really lucky if you manage to get into MIT. You’ll probably get into northwestern, and you’re almost guaranteed at schools like rose hulman, case western, UCLA. If nothing else, I guarantee you will get into OSU, which also has a rather strong engineering program. Plus, its size will allow you to take a variety of classes allowing for a double major which may be difficult at a smaller university with less class offerings</p>
<p>what part of india r u from?</p>
<p>Thank you … My parents though i would never make it to college with a 59 % … in 11th </p>
<p>Are u an Indian … ? </p>
<p>Thanks for the advice … I will look in to the universities u have recommended</p>
<p>yes, i’m indian - i live in ohio, and am going to college next year.</p>
<p>what part of delhi?</p>
<p>Near Gulmohar park , where are u from … in India ?
Do u know any1 with my marks … who got into any of the above universities ?</p>
<p>Any1 else … with more suggestions</p>
<p>@ WanToBeABrownie- If you need financial aid, then your chances are pretty low because of your average marks. But if you dont need aid, then the schools are a pretty good reach.</p>
<p>No … i don’t need Financial aid … can u ppl suggest some matches , some safeties and some reaches ?</p>
<p>I’m not Indian so I wasn’t going to reply since you asked for responses from only Indians but - I think most of the colleges indicated by ‘letsgo123’ (who’s not actually in college yet) would be reaches for you based on your SAT score (I don’t know anything about the other scores you indicated). Make sure you include some colleges that are less selective than the ones indicated in the other posts and that would be considered more as matches and safeties. There should be a number of them that would fit this. You can go to the particular college’s website and find the stats for the most recent incoming class to get an idea of where you fit. Also consider the part of the country you’d rather be in to help narrow down your selections.</p>
