<p>Not trying to downplay your math classes, very impressive indeed, but it looks unusual that you have some of your only Bs in them. Is there any reason for these, because it may be confusing.</p>
<p>@foolish These math classes are exceptionally difficult so thats why I have Bs in them. I am 4 grades advanced in math. It’s quite difficult to do well in classes when the level is so high.</p>
<p>Your resume looks pretty good, but you don’t list AP scores so that is something that would help a better guess.</p>
<p>As for which comp sci / comp sci engineering program to recommend - do you know if you are interested in hardware or software? My son looked at BU for example, and they are hardware-focused.</p>
<p>He wants to be a software engineer, so RPI seems like a better fit. He was looking at CMU, but he doesn’t have your stellar credentials and thinks it would be a reach.</p>
<p>You also should consider comp sci vs. comp sci engineering. For the latter, you want ABET accredited.</p>
<p>I would add a few schools to your list, depending on whether you need scholarship money or want a less geeky / rural experience. CMU trends very geeky from what we have seen, Cornell is in a college town but relatively isolated (I was accepted there but was afraid of nothing to do, sorry Cornell!).</p>
<p>The way I look at it, unless you already have an in, apply to ten schools with two definite, two probably, two reach but favored, and four reach if the stars line up correctly. Go on some campus tours if you can, to get a better feeling for each campus. It’s a rather diverse list although I’d suggest to my kid to add a few “definite and guaranteed merit aid” to the list.</p>
<p>@rhandco
Thanks for the input!
I’ve heard about RPI but the male to female ratio is 8:1 lol
I would rather go to Georgia Tech than RPI and BU
I’m not really sure which one I should go for Comp Sci/ Comp engineering still.
Its hard to decide.
Any other suggestions?</p>
<p>cornell- reach for most
uc-b - low reach
cmu-low reach/ high match
umich/ GiT- match</p>
<p>how did you go from algebra II to multivariable calculus?</p>
<p>Scores and GPA are stellar. EC is focused around the school and is also not exactly in the CS department. Other than that, you are a solid candidate for all of those schools. </p>
<p>@StanfordScience I self studied Calc AB, took the AP Test, got a 5.
@APUSHmeoffacliff I know There really is nothing that I can do now. It’s too late.</p>
<p>Cornell University reach
University of California at Berkeley low reach
Carnegie Mellon University high match/match
University of Michigan at Ann Arbor match
Georgia Institute of Technology match</p>
<p>ECs are solid. Maybe just bump up your CR score? </p>
<p>Then what about Calc BC?</p>
<p>@StanfordScience I self studied that too lol</p>
<p>Cornell-reach
UC Berkley-high match
CMU-match
UMich- match
Georgia Tech-match</p>
<p>That being said, I don’t know much about Georgia Tech and UMichigan but from what I’ve heard this is what I’d guess. Good luck!</p>
<p>@sonofgod908 Yeah that’s something that makes you stand out but I can guarantee you more than half the applicants do that type of stuff too. Princeton is arguably the hardest school to get into</p>
<p>@AlexAggs Do you suggest that I apply anywhere else? I think that 6 colleges is too little to apply to.</p>
<p>I would like to congrate you for your great numbers! They are awesome!!
Also, you have great amount of AP courses which push your weighted GPA even higher.
I would assume that your AP scores are decent as well.
Cornell University: Reach
University of California at Berkeley: High Match
Carnegie Mellon University: Low Reach/ High Match
University of Michigan at Ann Arbor: Match
Georgia Institute of Technology: Low Match</p>
<p>Cornell Berkeley are high matches.
Carnegie Mellon is a reach because you’re going for computer science.
Umichigan is a high match/match
Georgia tech is a match.
You can definitely look into top colleges like MIT or Stanford, they’d be reaches (probably low-mid) but you’d have a chance at them. Try to raise the sat to above 2300, life is hard for us Asian males.</p>
<p>So many Bs, but I guess those are really hard classes.</p>
<p>@su1xsu2xsu3 I know sophomore year was pretty bad
@theanaconda MIT and Stanford are too high for me</p>
<p>Cornell: mid-Reach
UC Berkley: mid-Reach
CMU: low reach/ high match
UMich: Match
GTECH: Match</p>
<p>@studentdoc Thanks! Do you know if UC Berk is easier to get into for in state students as opposed to out of state students?</p>
