<p>another shameless bump</p>

<p>Except Cornell and Stanford, and I think that you can easily get in everywhere else. If you write great essays, you may get into one of C and S.
Apply to your top choice early…It will definitely help you.</p>

<p>Chance Back?

<p>Thanks for the input! I will chance you.</p>

6

<p>High match for UIUC, and UMich. GPA slightly below admission average for engineering.</p>

<p>I think you will be admitted to all except Cornell, CMU, and Stanford, and you have a shot at those. CMU CS is harder to get into than its other programs. Penn may be worth considering. The CS program is very good, and since you live in Pennsylvania, you would have a very good chance to get in.</p>

8

<p>I think that CompSci is one of the most competitive majors for top engineering schools (MIT, CMU, Stanford, etc). Your ECs are decent. However getting into Stanford or Berkley as out of state is a crap-shoot. Which one of these have you decided to apply ED?</p>

<p>Thanks for the responses everyone </p>

<p>bump</p>

<p>I think you have a brilliant chance at all of the aforementioned schools except for Cornell, Stanford, and CMU. Those three are long-shots for nearly every applicant out there, which is completely fine, I recommend you focus on your essay(s) and make sure they focus on your strengths and passions. Best of luck, I hope you get accepted to your dream school!</p>

13

<p>accepted everywhere except stanford and cornell. CMU is a maybe (6% acceptance rate for CS). chance back? <a href=“Predict Me: Columbia, MIT, Yale, Carnegie Mellon and others - Chance Me / Match Me! - College Confidential Forums”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1688565-predict-me-columbia-mit-yale-carnegie-mellon-and-others-p1.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
