<p>By the way, I want to study Engineering in college. Is this a good college to study it at? Anything I need to improve? Should I retake SAT/SATIIs?</p>

<p>First of all, yes. It is arguably one of the best engineering schools in the country. It’s largest asset is the technology concentration, which is largely due to the best compsci program in the nation belonging to CMU (and MIT).</p>

<p>I think your stats look good. Hell, you’re more qualified than I was. Keep those grades up your senior year. Remember, don’t slack until your midyear report is out.</p>
