<p>Frankly, your chance is quite low. Your GPA and SAT scores are substantially low.
But good luck! i’m applying to CMU as well. AH IM NERVOUS!</p>

<p>I don’t think you’ll get into the school of computer science. extremely competitive</p>

<p>I’d give your chances at the mellon college of science as 50/50.</p>

<p>alright cool, i like those chances for the science school because that was my first choice anyway. i have a question though and it doesn’t have to do with chances. if i do get in, is it easy to switch colleges because if it turns out i dont like physics as much as i think i do, i might end up liking something in a different college like the Tepper school of business for economics or something.</p>
