<p>Additional:
-White
-$60,000 yearly household income

<p>All answers are appreciated</p>

<p>UVA: Aim for 32+/2150+
NCSU: Aim for 27+/1850+
CMU: Reach
GA Tech: Aim for 31+/2100+
Cornell: Reach
GWU: Aim for 31+/2100+</p>

<p>Is there anything you don’t like about UNC-CH? In-state UNC-CH only needs 29+/2000+ for it to be a match…</p>

<p>Or even Duke Pratt? If you get 32+/2150+ Duke Pratt becomes reachable…</p>

<p>Yeah, I considered UNC, but they don’t have an engineering program. I’m not really interested in a liberal arts college. You think Duke is a possibility? I’d love to go to Duke, I just figured that I didn’t stand a chance.</p>

<p>I think all of these are attainable if you get high enough test scores</p>

<p>Cornell: Waitlist
UVA: Waitlist (try for a 2250)
Carnegie: you have to take SAT Math II and Physics II to apply from what I remember
GaTech: Accept
GWU: Accept
NCState: Accept</p>

<p>I think it’s all about he SAT and your AP Scores at this point. Good luck!
