<p>I think that's it. so yeah, if you guys could give me your thoughts/opinions/ tips/ etc. I think you know the drill by now! I'd love to hear it... thanks in advance</p>
<p>I think it’s a strong match. You may also want to apply to other Main Line schools (Haverford being my personal favorite of the bunch).</p>
<p>With your current scores you will have a reasonable chance. A lot has to do with your expected major. Business, hard sciences and especially engineering will be a reach for you with that math score. Any other majors you should get in.</p>
<p>You stand a pretty good shot. You have pretty good ECs, scores are about average, GPA a little above average…I agree with risingchemist though that your math school is low for those particular majors. Good luck!</p>
<p>Really? I want to do business. Just wondering though, how is my GPA a little above average? Haha I have only gotten one B, I am genuinely curious what you think would make my GPA stand out a little more? </p>
<p>Yeah, I know my math score is ehhhh. Hopefully I’ll bring it way up in the fall. Thanks for the critique and comments!</p>
<p>The business school is very challenging, ranked #7 nationally, and your GPA is high but it is a public school, despite being number one in pennsylvania. The average gpa of accepted students is 3.8, and avg act score is 30-33. So your GPA is above average and your SAT is on/slightly below average. Your GPA is good but I don’t think it and your high school carry enough weight to boost other parts that are lacking on your app. I will rephrase that your gpa is a “good amount” above average, but dont think that it alone will drive your app.</p>
<p>You have a shot at the business school but your SAT scores look like those of an English Literature major. Use that to your advantage by writing a good essay.</p>
