<p>UCLA - reach
Penn - high reach
USC - low reach
CMU - low reach</p>

<p>Your GPA is below average and your SAT isnt high enough to make up for it. They dont put you out of the running though and you have decent ECs so you still have a shot.</p>

<p>Thanks for all the responses. Any one else?</p>

<p>Honestly if I were you, I would take the offer from UIUC. They have one of the best and hardest to get into EE programs.</p>

<p>Would you mind giving us some more information to help us help you (e.g. ethnicity, money situation)?</p>

<p>Your SAT is almost the same as mine, and I also am going to take Math 2 and Physics subject tests. You’ve taken more AP’s than I have, though.
