I consistently A’s and B’s on my transcript with no C’s as my final grades.

Sat Subject Tests:

  1. US History: 740

ACT Scores (as of right now, taking one in the fall). I’m terrible with both SAT and ACT

  1. 20 Composite
  2. Hoping for a 25 for the one in fall

If i were to keep that 20 and send it with my application would it seriously hurt my chances. This part of my application is holding me back and I don’t like it very much :((
if i were to score a 23 or 24 on my ACT in the fall would that be a reach for Penn State main or will i be good

National Honor Society
1 year of World Issues club ( Junior year)
1 year of Science Club ( stopped functioning)

AP Scholar

    Also is 100 Hours and up a good number of volunteer hours for Penn State Main.

Recommendation: Planning on it

  • would it increase my chances if i apply undecided and also tell me if i should apply fall or summer.

It would be very nice if someone could chance me.

ACT 25 is the 25th percentile at main campus. To be below that makes it a reach.

3

Bump

4

Bump

5

Bump! Lol

6

You are close or below the 25th percentile in both UW GPA and ACT. This is really gonna hurt you, but you have good class rigor and rank. It is a reach, but not impossible. I think Pitt is a good shot for you. I think you are below average, but it isn’t bad.

7

The numbers are UW GPA is 3.55-3.97 and ACT scores are 26-30.

8

There is no need to bump three times in the same minute!

9

I don’t understand why I am below for my GPA if it is in the average GPA for Penn state. My GPA in their scale which is 3.59

10

are international applicants required to send official transcripts along with the application? It isn’t necessary for US citizens, I believe.
