<p>For your sake, I’ll also assume a 3.4UW GPA.
SATs will limit you…ECs may be -dry- for some colleges, even if you or I think otherwise; although your work at said prestigious university may be of interest if you can underline its importance to you and your future. SATII subj’t tests=?</p>
<p>ED Barnard: Reach (SAT scores and “dry” ECs may make life tough)
EA Chicago: High reach (those kids up there are nuts)
EA U Mich: Low reach (not out of range either…engineering+women=rare)
EA Georgia Tech: Match for sure (see above)
EA UNC Chapel Hill: Low reach (not instate, are you?)
RD Emory: Low reach (tough to get into, maybe try retaking SATs before RD?)
Northwestern: High reach
Stony: Match
Harvard: High reach
Northeastern: Match
Dartmouth: Reach
CMU: Low reach (see what i said about women+engineering schools that are male biased)
Tufts: Reach/low reach
Lehigh: Match</p>
<p>Yes, it is a 92. Don’t know the exact conversion on 4.0 scale.
The rigor classes is the only reason that the average is a 92.
There are of course, many other applicants with higher averages simpler because they did not stack up on courses since freshmen year.
So im not downplaying anyone, just saying why i have a 92 instead of a 95 or something you know</p>
