I mean–maybe. I imagine you can probably get into a T20 school. A few things.

  1. Don’t submit your Chemistry SAT II unless a school requires 3. Two 800s is more impressive than two 800s and a 700.

  2. Make sure to write really good essays. You should start practicing well. Good essays can really help.

  3. Are you solely interested in Aerospace Engineering? You could probably raise your chances of getting into a top school if you apply to more schools. Some top schools may not have Aerospace Engineering, but they may have other programs which you would enjoy, e.g. another sort of engineering or Astro. Just something to think about.

Purdue has a really good Aerospace Program, and it matches your stats.
