<p>I think you’re in with your SAT scores and science ECs.<br>
(btw-- my son in is DS, so I do know a little bit about what it takes to get in)</p>

<p>By any chance, would you mud posting around where some of your son’s stats (sat, rank, act) were? I would really appreciate it!! Thanks for your help!</p>

<p>SAT’s were around 2250-- it’s been a while so I can’t remember the exact number. I know he had a couple of 800’s between the SAT and SAT IIs. He won awards at ISEF and was an Intel finalist. No class rank and no AP’s because he was home schooled, but he did have 60+ hours dual credit. I think your scores and science ECs are similar. I think you have a very good chance of getting in. btw-- if you haven’t already make sure you apply for the Freshman Research Initiative.</p>
