<p>What do you guys think?</p>

<p>Overall you’re in at engineering. Maybe at Ross too. But Ross really want you to have business experience or a lot of leadership positions. So I’d go with a decent chance at Ross.</p>

3

<p>What do you mean by “weighted” when you recalculated your gpa. Also, how many AP/Honors/IB courses have you taken and what’s your math sub score on the ACT.</p>

4

<p>You’re in at engineering.</p>

5

<p>You should be in at Engineering. Your GPA and ACT are great. I was told that CoE really looks at your math and science background, and your ability to be successful at your major (or engineering in general if you didn’t specify a major) more than your sports, essays etc. If you took 4 years or advanced maths and sciences, you should be fine.</p>

6

<p>Your in for engineering, but Ross is really selective. I would say Slight reach for Ross, but you still have good chances. You have the grades and scores to get a really good scholarship.</p>

7

<p>I don’t think Michigan gives many scholarships for those stats. They’re good, but he’s not getting a lot.</p>

8

<p>Since it is an IB school, all my classes are IB level, which is equivelant to AP in a sense</p>

9

<p>jrt is right. Depends what you consider a “really good scholarship.” I had about the same stats but I didn’t get too much from UM, mostly from outside places.</p>

10

<p>You’ll probably be fine for engineering.</p>

<p>Ross is a reach there…not many freshman get in. Most get in sophemore year+</p>

<p>Yeah, Ross is really hard to get into, especially as an incoming freshman.</p>
