<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I am currently a high school student. My unweighted GPA is 3.6 and my weighted GPA is 4.3. I am in the top 5% of my class and participate in various extracurricular activities. I take engineering-specific classes and would like to go into the engineering field. Some of the colleges I want to go to are:
-Stanford
-MIT
-University of California-Berkely
-University of Michigan
-U of I
-UW Madison
-Purdue
-Any other Big-10 college or Ivy League college</p>

<p>What are my chances of getting into any of these? Is my GPA okay?</p>

<p>Your GPA is too low for MIT, Stanford, and Berkeley. They, and even Mich, i would consider reaches. The others are possible though.</p>

<p>^ I agree. uwGPA at 3.6 is low for top schools. Unless your school have deflated GPA (as you are in the top 5%). It is hard to tell if that is the case without a standardized test score for comparison.
You do have a good chance at Purdue if your SAT/ACT is ~2000/29 or above.</p>
