My mid year grades are (88 calc AB, 81 IB physics SL, ~95 government / english / business internship). Current grades (1st 6 wks 88 calc, 81 phys, ~88 eng, 98 eco, 90 internship; 2nd 6 wks 90+ in all subjs). Below are my stast that i intially applied with:
1380 sat (670 M 710 V)
690 math2c 630 chem 630 writing
96/748 rank, 4.0 W gpa (5.0 IB scale, regular class 4.0)

<p>You can try, but just note that appeals don't go through very often. Maybe you can try calling the admissions office to see if you can figure out the reason you weren't accepted.</p>

<p>dude...your rank was avg (you weren't in top 10%) your SATs in both chem and both maths were ALL BELOW 700. Those didn't stack up. Simple.</p>

<p>You got rejected. Stop crying about it. I've had enough of your posts.</p>

<p>lolok1214..doesnt matter eif he was in top 10 percent. He has to have a good reason why they should reconsider his rejection. like for example...he won an inredible award and showed awesome grades in the 12th grade. anyways, you should appeal if you have a strong case.</p>

<p>It's obviously not his ECs...and it's uncanny that his rank was 12% i believe, not 10%, and his SATs just weren't up to the 700s. Academics didn't make the cut. </p>

<p>Appealing is for whiners. That's just MHO</p>
