<p>What college/major of CMU are you applying to?</p>

3

<p>im not sure...any suggestion</p>

<p>CIT is a popular choice. It would be a good flexible choice for most and allows you to dabble/transfer to other fields as necessary. </p>

<p>CMU allows you to apply to multiple schools so just check whatever schools interest you.</p>

<p>My stats going into senior year looked almost exactly the same, with the exception of no religious stuff. Pretty much the same gpa etc as well. With C+ in math, even that one time, CIT may not be so happy...</p>

<p>You have a good chance anywhere with a 2100 (I had a 2110) and was accepted to CFA for Architecture (though not to my first choice for Computer Engineering)</p>

<p>They do have a few different schools, one thing I reccomend, is go right now and sign up for the Physics and Math (2) SAT2s, so you can take them around finals / AP times, it really does make a difference, and you don't wanna take them after the summer has passed. </p>

<p>You'll need 3 total, 1 math, 1 lab science (phys chem bio) and one of anything. This is true for the CIT and similar schools, not sure what it is for other schools, you may want to look.</p>
