Chance for UIUC, Georgia Tech and Purdue Engineering

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hi, I'm a Canadian student applying early to UIUC, Georgia Tech and Purdue electrical engineering this year. It would be great if I could get some feedback on my chances at those schools.</p>

<p>Here are my stats so far:</p>

<p>SAT 2100 (not great, first time doing a real standardized exam) (690R, 730M, 680W)
Doing SAT II in November (the practice tests I've done so far are around 760-800 for physics, 750-800 for Math 2)</p>

<p>GPA is around 3.5-3.7 (My grades are reported in percent and I have yet to find a very reliable way of converting to GPA, my average in percentage is 90. Science and Math marks are all 90+, English and World History dragged me down.)</p>

<p>No AP or honours (My school doesn't offer any) however I did take the enriched math and science classes offered all through high school. </p>

<p>EC:
2 years of library volunteer
1 year if working with children in elementary school (planning activities etc)
1 year part of charity organization
1 year working with school security
University if Waterloo Math contests in grade 9/10 (did not take in grade 11 last year as teachers in my school board had informal strike, cancelling most ECs)
Over 100 volunteer hours.</p>

<p>Grade 12 courses I took are Calculus/Vectors, Statistics, Advanced Functions, Physics, Chemistry, English, Geography. </p>

<p>High school is one of best in city, 90% of students get into first choice universities.</p>

<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>I think all of those schools are high matches.

<p>Purdue should be a match for you. Both UIUC and Purdue do not require SAT2 and may not even look at them.</p>
