Assuming I have a 3.5 gpa

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Assume that I have a 3.5 gpa.
I have many extra circular activities, along with a captaincy at track for sprint, and i have taken a one physics course at a college near me.
Assume that I am only a softmore.</p>

<p>Assume i have my own website with things of the nature such as my skills... little programs that i have created... proof i am very skilled with computer engineering and things like that. very skilled. </p>

<p>in school assume that i get the occasional a, mostly b's and c's but i get the A in math and science, b in english, and c in american studies.</p>

<p>If i am in honors level (honors is like high level) math english and science, and i am very skilled at things like physics, math, computer skills, computer programming, researching and gathering information, etc... what are my chances of getting into a somewhat iv league school?</p>

<p>obviously i would strive for MIT but with a 3.5 gpa... ehhh not so great right? what sort of colleges would take someone like me? and what can i do to improve my chances of getting into a good college?</p>

<p>also assume i did perfect on my math sat.</p>

<p>any help?</p>

<p>chance at an Ivy or other tippy top school is low, but there are many other good schools. </p>

<p>Try Carnegie Mellon for a reach.</p>

<p>Rochester and Clemson could be good matches.</p>

<p>For safeties, maybe a state school?</p>

<p>Low, to no chances at "top" schools. Because your grades are bad, (what are your test scores?), and you aren't taking AP classes, sorry but "honors" really doesn't mean that much.</p>

4

<p>Sorry, MIT would be a gigantic reach due to your lack of a rigorous curriculum and low GPA. If you do make a perfect on your math SAT and high scores on the CR and W sections, your chances might be higher.</p>

<p>Also check into WPI (MA), Stevens Tech (NJ) and Clarkson (NY).</p>

<p>Case Western seems to fit the bill. Also consider Rose-Hulman, Kettering U in Flint Michigan, and RIT. Good Luck!</p>

<p>Also, come chance me at Small-Town Junior looking for advice and chances for big-name schools thanks!

<p>well, with that gpa and being good at math and science i would recommend WPI, RIT and if you get a good score on the SAT, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Case western is also a good school(that im applying to), but i think you have to be able to spell sophmore to get in.<br>
assuming you do well on the SATs, you have a decent chance at all of those schools, but pretty much no chance at the IVYs</p>

<p>how do you have a 3.5, with mostly b's and c's? is that weighted? I also think you stand a good chance at some of the other tech schools, like RIT</p>
