<p>Very good chance, but I think a chemistry major would be more impressive from Northwestern. Just make sure your sat score is 2000+ and I think you should be fine.</p>
<p>Both are impressive. NU’s Chem Dept. is very highly regarded, although I have always doubted how much that matters for an undergrad degree. The McCormick School of Engineering is in the top tier in the country. You can’t lose.
Good luck.</p>
<p>No im just saying that a chemistry major from Northwestern is more impressive, because of its rankings and rigor than a chemical engineer major.</p>
