<p>How hard is this to get into? Any other information is appreciated! Thanks!</p>

<p>Harder than HPME and HYPMS! I knew only one person in it when I was at NU. She turned down Stanford.</p>

<p>Do you know whats sort of stats she had OR what they look for in an applicant? I would LOVE to be able to this! Although...I guess that my gpa probably would not be good enough. If you are not addmitted when you apply can you be addmitted later on...if you prove yourself? Is it cheaper than just doing engineering and then going to their grad school? Again, any information is appreciated! Thanks Sam Lee...although the information was discouraging...lol:)</p>

<p>I think you have to apply before your freshman year. Stats? Well, better be near perfect or perfect. I mean HPME's average SATs are like 1535 and 2300 on SAT IIs. This is even harder than HPME. Essays and ECs, the ones that show leadership/business/entrepreneurial/teamwork skills, will be very important.</p>
