Chances for CMU?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Just wondering if I have a shot at Carnegie Mellon University (in the process of applying for colleges right now)</p>

<p>On the SATs I got 1780 three part 520 math 670 CR 590 Writing
The math score is MUCH lower than I would like, I took the ACT yesterday, hoping that that turns out a little better. </p>

<p>I took the SAT II's in Chemistry and Math II those scores are supposed to be in on thursday (Which leads me to another question, how well do you have to score on the subject tests?)</p>

<p>I have a 4.0 W, my school doesn't calculate UW unless you ask them to specifically calculate it. That GPA should be increasing as the year goes on because all my classes are heavily weighted (I have 4 college in highschool courses and they are weighted 1.2, and my other classes are all weighted 1.1 at least usually) </p>

<p>I am ranked 7/ (I don't know how many are in the class I just know it's around 80)</p>

<p>So do I have a chance? I know that the math score is my major downfall and hopefully the ACTs will remedy this.</p>

<p>You gave about like 1/4 of an app.</p>

<p>I’m applying to CMU too and I’m waiting for my scores for the month of Oct, SAT as well as ACT. As of right now though, I have</p>

<p>1970 SAT - M 760 R 600 W 610
31 ACT - E 29 R 35 M 35 S 27
780 Math II, 710 Bio, Chem
GPA is a 96 and I’m probably top 25% out of 580.</p>

<p>Just to see where you stand. I’m guessing that I’m applying with some lower scores than the average anyway. But you’re gonna need to put up more for a better chance.</p>
