<p>3.75 W GPA end of junior year

Schools I am looking at: Penn State, Drexel, Virginia Tech, NC State, Michigan State
Senior Year Schedule
Calc AB
AP English 12
AP Microeconomics
AP Physics
Honors Spanish 4</p>
<p>Why not look a little higher? These schools are good, keep them, but maybe try top 40 schools as well, just a couple. Of course you need to go in more depth on ECs though it was not much detail.</p>
<p>I want to do engineering though…arent those schools top 40 for engineering?

<p>I’m sorry I skimmed the post and didn’t realize this. Okay, then consider raising physics because it is low. I would still also try one school that is even more competitive just to see. That is if you want to. Also if you go engineering, than do something for the summer pertaining to it.</p>
<p>A school like Cornell?</p>
<p>If you want to. Sure. I don’t see why not. Personally I think you’re fine for these schools. Know Cornell is a huge reach and you might need to do something in the EC dept to standout. But you have the brains. And with good physics score pretty much the score.</p>
<p>Do you think I have a good chance at Penn State main?</p>
<p>Would a 700 in physics still be too low for there? And should I bother taking the ACT again in september?</p>
<p>For Cornell, yes, the act retake would e amust. However, the rest, ehhh. I think you’re fine. But I’m not that familiar with engineering schools admissions. I don’t see a problem though for those, if you try Cornell just try to make test scores a little better, you’re close. And standout in the app. Easier said then done, but try hard and you can do it.</p>
