<p>I'd say you have a pretty good chance, especially because you'll be a minority for ENG, both in gender and race. Your math scores seem kind of low for going all the way through IB Calc, but the ACT math score's not too bad.</p>

<p>Which major are you applying under? I'm a sophomore in BME if you have any other questions about the program.</p>

and i know, my math scores are what worries me. i blame the low scores on me just not studying enough, and i kind of regret it now. oh well, there isn't anything i can do now anyway :/</p>
