<p>Sat 2060 (680 math, 690 cr, 680 writing)</p>
<p>Are these really poor scores for UIUC computer science? </p>
<p>Will my cr/writing scores make up for my math or is math all that matters for CS. </p>
<p>I started my app but after reading cc forums, I feel like its a sure rejection.</p>
<p>I expect the mid 50 ACT for CS to be 31-34 just similar to other engineering programs. SAT 2060 is near the low end of that range.</p>
<p>So I shouldn’t bother? Most likely a rejection?</p>
<p>Posterguy, I’d apply. It’s the only way you’ll know for sure.</p>
<p>Is that a nice way of telling me it’s a crap shot?
Lol</p>
<p>That’s crap “shoot”, but no. You’re near the lower end of the mid-50% of those admitted, so apply to know for sure.</p>
<p>You are near the low end of mid 50, that means you are better than ~25% of admitted students.</p>
<p>I am an international student from Nigeria </p>
<p>I’m guessing that works against me because UIUC is public.</p>
<p>I got into engineering with the same math score - go for it.</p>
<p>You’re an international student (at a time when Illinois needs that OOS money) from an underrepresented country with decent scores. I’d be surprised if you didn’t get in.</p>
<p>I’m an international applicant. Applying to the College of Engineering for undergrad CS.
I have an SAT superscore of 2080 - 690 CR, 670 M, 720 W.
I have the same question as the OP - how badly will my Math score affect my chances? Also, how much importance does Illinois give to Writing scores?</p>
<p>ECs - president of my school’s computer club (we host this large scale computer symposium annually), school vice-captain, won quite a few regional to state level quizzes (also the student head of the quizzing club), a few olympiad certificates.</p>
<p>Academics - Illinois asks Indians to report only percentages from 10th grade board examinations, in which I have a 95% (translates into a 4.0 GPA I guess) with a 100 in Computer Science. Top 5% of my class. Current subjects - English, Physics, Chemistry, Math and CS. (TOEFL - 113/120, but that hardly counts)</p>
<p>So, what are my chances of getting in? Chances for DGS, if accepted not to the engineering college?</p>
