<p>Hi.</p>

<p>I think you are set for Carnegie Mellon, for the rest I am not sure. I know that Cooper is very competitive on the Visual Arts side of things, I am not sure how the engineering is, but I am sure it is competitive as well.</p>

<p>With Carnegie, one of my close friends got in for engineering with a lower GPA. I am not sure how high his tests were though.</p>

<p>not sure as in you don't know enough about the schools or you're doubtful that I would be accepted?</p>
