I also tutor in school.
I tutor young inner city school kids as well.
I am interested in engineering and would like to know if I have a high chance of getting accepted into UMich, Purdue, GTech, UTexas Austin, and other top engineering schools. If not, what should I improve?
@nmaca22 , the information on this site will help you determine how your stats match up against the engineering students at your desired schools (for example, Michigan):
@UWfromCA that might not be incredibly useful for state schools since the vast majority of their applicants will be from in state and it will be mich more difficuly to gain acceptance as an OOS student.
OP, UT will likely be a reach for anyone who is OOS. Only 10% of the incoming class is allowed to be OOS or international, and a lot of people applying from OOS are applying to engineering, making it very competitive. They have to reject a lot of qualified applicants.
“Incredibly useful” might be too high of a standard for any reference to meet. Each ASEE school profile shows the SAT and ACT ranges of the engineering students at that school. Perhaps that information is at least “useful.”
Some public schools, like Michigan and Washington, have more OOS applicants than instate applicants.
Some public schools, like many UCs, have higher acceptance rates for OOS applicants.
