<p>Hey Everybody. Lately my college goals have been changing a lot, and my parents have been freaking out about costs, so I'm hoping to get some perspective on my chances on certain universities, and hopefully if I'll be getting any scholarships on merit to them. I plan to major in either Computer/Software Engineering or Industrial/Information Systems Engineering.</p>
<p>Predictions:
High Reach- MIT (No Scholarships)
Match- Georgia Tech, Purdue, RIT
Safety- ISU</p>
<p>Personal Info:</p>
<p>GPA (Don't Understand Weighted vs. Unweighted. Some classes are 4.5 if they are college credit courses at our school though)- 3.989</p>
<p>-Took English 9/10 honors, Chemistry Advanced Studies, Human Geography AP (5 on test), College American Lit (Dual Credit), C. Western Civ. (Dual Credit), C. Elementary Stats (Dual Credit), will be taking Calculus for Dual Credit, College Speech, and AP Physics B (Expect 4 on exam).</p>
<p>-I think I'm 9th out of 200 or so.</p>
<p>-ACT Writing Scores: All 35s, 10 on Writing, Composite 35.</p>
<p>-SAT II scores (Weak):
Math II: 790
Chem: 610 (Taking Physics in the Fall, hoping for 750)
Lit: 680</p>
<p>PSAT: 210, expecting Finalist, have gotten a letter about being in the top 50,000, and I live in Iowa, so getting semi-finalist shouldn't be tough</p>

<p>I think my ECs are pretty mid-range, and I know my SAT subject tests need improving, but otherwise I feel pretty solid. I know that MIT is a reach, but I'd like to know if it's worth applying, and also if I could get scholarships to my predicted matches.</p>
