<p>My letters of Recommendation will be from my Computer Science teacher and Math teacher.
I plan to study mechanical engineering and Computer science.</p>
<p>My issues are that i do not have an even close enough SAT score to compete with other applicants.
I don't have any other chances to get it up before Early Decision. I need to take my SAT Subject tests because the College of engineering requires a Math and Science Subject test. I will be taking the ACT but i do not know if my scores will come in time. My GPA, class rank, Course rigor, and Extra Curricular are good. As well as i consider myself to be a really interesting writer and believe i can write great essays.</p>
