<p>EC's: Pretty Good. I will not list all my involvements, but I am an officer in numerous clubs and have participated in many hours of community service </p>
<p>Senior Year Schedule:</p>
<pre><code> AICE Thinking Skills II (Problem Solving)
AICE Chemistry
AICE Biology

<p>You need to get that ACT score up. Especially that math score of 25. Take it again as soon as possible, and grab a couple of review guides with practice tests. Otherwise you’d have to be classified as a slight reach to a reach.</p>
<p>You will be accepted for sure. I am from Oregon, white, male, 3.20 gpa, 1300 sat, and had leadership experience and got accepted to engineering. Once you get into the general engineering program getting into your chosen major is quite a bit harder though.</p>
<p>As we sometimes say. “Purdue, where your best isn’t good enough since 1869.”</p>
<p>skippy; those look like great stats. i had the opposite - low gpa high test scores (3.00, 2240) and i was admitted to engineering today.</p>
<p>your excellent GPA and rank will make up for your test scores. i think it’s too late now to take any tests for consideration, but your scores aren’t that bad anyways. </p>
<p>Hello everyone,
I’m an international student (Nepal) with average scores (I guess) and average Ec’s. However, I am very very very much interested in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering at Purdue. (I lost hope of getting into an Ivy after my SAT scores came out.)</p>
<p>SAT:
CR 590
Math 680
Writing 630
Total 1900
Composite 1270</p>
<p>TOEFL 109
SAT II (Physics, Math I and Literature; scores not out yet)</p>
<p>GPA- 3.75
Rank- Top 2% (most competitive school in the country with rigorous curriculum)</p>
<p>EC’s:
President- Astronautics club
Coordinator- student magazine committee
Event Manager- social service council
Volunteer- Interact club (Rotary International)
Volunteer- International Year of Astronomy 2009 programs in Nepal
Member- environment club</p>
<p>I would say you’re borderline with that ACT score and even if you do get in, you’ll be one of those students who has a hard time staying in with that low math score unless you don’t think it represents you.</p>
<p>Not trying to be negative, but my GPA was 3.89 and I was third in my class and I didn’t get accepted into their engineering program. I had above average SAT scores, but still too low for them. And I had ton of leadership positions and community service and that didn’t get me in, so I wouldn’t get your hopes up, but you never know!</p>
<p>Guys please chance me! Responses appreciated.
