<p>South Carolina Resident
Major: Bioengineering
Class of 2010
GPA: 3.9 weighted. I am not sure what my unweighted is, but I want to say my unweighted is 3.7 but it is not less than 3.5.
Class Rank: School does not rank but the school claims all of the students would rank in the top 15% at a regular school. I go to a magnet school which has been consistently ranked in the top ten of public high schools by Newsweek Magazine and was recently ranked the 9th best high schools in the nation (public and private) by U.S. News and World Report.
ACT: my best composite score is 29. some colleges, not all and i dont know if pitt does, take your best subscores and if you do this with my scores my composite score goes to 30
AP classes before senior year: AP Euro (3), AP US (4), AP Biology (5)
Honors classes before senior year: Pretty much everything. My school has very few classes below honors since it is an academic school.
Senior Schedule: Honors Physics, Art 1 (need fine art credit), AP Literature, AP Spanish, AP Environmental, AP Statistics, AP Gov/Econ.</p>

Plenty of volunteer hours, Lead Judge on Mt.

<p>I will give you honesty. Now, I am not an expert on the school but I’m basing this on information from the OAFA and facts I have from CC, which I suppose is extensive enough.</p>

<p>I think you have a very good chance of being admitted to the engineering school. Now, your ACT is much too low to have a Chancellor’s nominee ($10,000) or full tuition honors scholarship. You don’t mention your ethnicity, but URM have additional tuition scholarships. You do have a shot at an engineering scholarship I think they start at a 29 ACT, appx. $2,000-$4,000/year. I sincerely believe Pitt does not superscore the ACT. Your ACT is too low for the graduate school guarantee- the requirements are spelled out on its website and the minimum is a 31 ACT.</p>

<p>You are in that gray area for Honors. But being from a top ten high school can’t hurt.</p>

<p>Does this help?</p>
