Hoping to apply to chemical engineering to these colleges. Chance me? Thank you! Also, should I send just ACT scores or both ACT + SAT since I’m applying to engineering and need stronger math points?
Stats:
4.0 UW GPA / 4.3 W GPA
Rank: 1/450

SAT II - Math II 800, Chem 800
ACT Comp 34 Eng 35, Reading 33, Science 34, Math 32 (my ACT + SAT subscores are kind of opposites…) (1 time)
APs (will take 8 total including this year, school only allows 3 AP class jr and sr year): Chem 5, Physics 1 5, APUSH 5, AP Lit 4, World History 4
Other info:
Female, Asian, First Generation, applying to college of engineering to most schools (except Berkeley is under college of chemistry, does that affect anything?)
No hooks
Major: Chem engineering
Recs: Counselor didn’t really know me until this year, but she seems to like me. maybe 7 or 8/10
Teacher recs, hopefully, are good. ~8 or 9/10
EC’s:
-President of a service organization at my school + past officer 10th, 11th, 12th active years
-Treasurer of a coding/computer science club (it was founded this year)
-Part of an all girls engineering/technology program at school until it was closed down ( 9-11th grade )
-ATDP at UC Berkeley for 2 years (took art + writing class, organized group discussions)
-JV tennis player (lol, I am really not athletic)
-Participated in a summer science and engineering program at an out-of-state college, took neuroscience + genetics course
-Part of a science mentorship/volunteer program 11-12th grade (basically mentoring middle schoolers and doing science experiment)
-CSF
-library volunteering (9-10th) supervised homework club

Essay: Not sure how to feel about it, but spent a lot of time on it ~8 or 9/10? Used my mom as a role model in essay
Really want to get into engineering, is it impacted? What are my chances? Thanks!
