<p>Hopefully someone with some previous experience can help me out.</p>
<p>I applied to Pitt 2 days ago. Under their rolling admissions I wanted to get to them as soon as possible. (I will be graduating high school in May/June 2011!)</p>
<p>Pitt is the school of my dreams. If I don't get in I'm going to be crushed, so I'm not getting my hopes up for anything.</p>
<p>But I was just curious if anyone here thinks I stand a chance...</p>
<p>GPA unweighted - 3.75-3.8</p>
<p>GPA weighted - 4.01</p>
<p>SAT - 1100 (math+critical reading)...I KNOW this low. And I hate myself for not doing better.
A 1600 is you add the writing. Pitt doesn't look at the writing though, so that doesn't matter.</p>
<p>EC - Russian Club president, Italian club, The Future is Mine, Debate Team, Academic League captain, student council, marching band, concert band, jazz band (section leader in all bands), NHS</p>
<p>4 AP classes - 2 junior year and 2 this year
A very tough junior and senior schedule. NO blowoff classes whatsoever. (Our school doesn't offer too many AP classes, I took all the ones available except AP Calc. Taking Trig instead)</p>
<p>Supplemental information - 1 letter of recommendation for AP English Language teacher. 2 essays (one was about a book and how it impacted my life and showed off my writing skills, and the other was 'why I want to attend the University of Pittsburgh') Plus I sent in a resume with all clubs, extra activities, jobs, awards, etc.</p>
<p>So can anyone give me anything? I understand that the SAT scores is a little below their average but I'm hoping some of the other stuff will make up for that...</p>
