<p>I heard it got more selective.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.73
Rank: 49/526
SAT I: 770CR 720M 710W (1490/1600, 2200/2400)
SAT II: I'll do those whenever.</p>

<p>ECS:</p>

<p>Debate (2nd place in the state), ROTC (4 years), Arkansas Leadership Development (4 years), Student Congress (1 year), Community Service in my high school and a hospital (about 120 hours though . . . ), etc. etc.</p>

<p>Hooks:</p>

<p>African American, Arkansas Residence.</p>

<p>Chances at these schools, but mostly USC, are appreciated.</p>

<p>USC (Engineering)
Vanderbilt
UMich (My UMich GPA is 3.6 . . . ouch)
UMiami
Georgia Tech
Cornell (I'll work on my math for Cornell Engineering).</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>You've got to be kidding me.</p>

<p>I think you'll be fine for USC engineering assuming that GPA is unweighted. I'm not familiar enough with the other schools to comment, but I think you are, at the very least, well-qualified for all of them.</p>

<p>dude, you gotta aim higher</p>

<p>Stanford or Princeton engineering</p>

<p>Stanford is my reach-of-god-in-my-dreams school. I have extenuating circumstances regarding my GPA though, and I'm retaking the SATs.</p>

7

<p>You're an URM, which frankly allows you to aim for higher schools.</p>

<p>So go for it.</p>

<p>A 2200 is a high score for anyone.</p>

<p>Thanks for the replies, are there any opinions on other schools I've listed?</p>
