Thank you all ^.^

Clemson weighs GPA, class rank and test scores the most in admission decisions. What is your rank? Is your GPA weighted or unweighted and what is your CR and M scores?

Since I go to a private school in NC, my gpa will be put on a uniform grading scale (gpa should be much higher/not weighted). My school is college prep, so we do not rank also. And my CR and M scores is around 1000

You may want to look at the CDS for Clemson to see how your stats measure up to most recent admits. You may also want to look at the wait list thread from last year to see how you measure up.
