<p>seems pretty safe</p>

<p>35 Composite and you need to ask if the U is a safety school? No offense, but really? Should be shooting for like, Cornell or something.</p>

<p>Well my cousin had a 34 and got rejected so I just want to check. I’m not trying to be a cocky prick here honestly.</p>

<p>@eagle69: To which college? I’m sure he wasn’t outright rejected… maybe from the CSE or CBS, but still VERY doubtful.</p>

6

<p>CBS. He was wait listed several times then rejected. Obviously this is not the norm, but I thought I’d just hear what people have to say on this matter.</p>

There must have been something substantial in his application if the average is 30.4</p>

<p>Thanks for the link! He lacked ECs i know, but had a 4.0… Idk. I guess the inner workings can be cryptic.</p>

<p>Yeah no problem, good luck to you. :D</p>

<p>Are you applying to CBS? I would say that the rest of the U (CLA, for example) would be “safety” for you…</p>

<p>I’d say the U of M as a whole is pretty much a safety, and CBS/CSE are still likely. There are a lot of people here with stats like yours though.</p>
