Hey all,
I was wondering what my chances were to be able to go to specifically Clemson Honors, GA Tech, VA Polytechnic Institute, UNC Chapel Hill?
I am not financially inhibited, I live in South Carolina and I go to a relatively competitive school.
I have no legacies anywhere but Michigan State and MIT.
Below are my ‘stats’-- at least, what I have right now. I will have my SAT score back tomorrow.
White F - US Citizen
Intended major: computer engineering
GPA:
Unweighted: 3.87/4.0
Weighted: 5.077/6.0
AP Classes:
Freshman: AP Human Geo (4)
Sophomore: AP Statistics (3), AP World History (4), AP Computer Science (4 sadly)
Junior: AP Physics 1, AP Physics 2, AP US History, AP Language and Composition (gonna try to make a 5 on half of these, knock on wood. I didn’t study any of my previous years and I’m trying to turn my life around)
Planned for Senior: AP BC Calculus, AP Chemistry, AP Literature, AP gov/microeconomics
Dual Credit (not sure how much this will matter in the long run):
Intro to Engineering (100)
Principles of Engineering (100)
Civil Engineering and Architecture (100)
PSAT: 1240 → 1390
SAT: comes out 12.14.18
Class rank: 16/423 (3.7%)
Extracurriculars:
VEX Robotics (Vice President)
Technology Student Association (VChapter Vice President)
FBLA
National Honors Art Society
Venture Crew (Vice President 2017, Historian 2018) (AKA boy scouts but with girls in it too)
National Honors Society
Young Women in Engineering
Notable (?) Achievements (many more that I don’t feel count much out of local area):
