Notre Dame Engineering

<p>I have heard that it is extremely important that you take the required courses in order to get into Notre Dame Engineering. I am applying for Sophomore status Fall 2011. I currently am a freshman at Loyola University Chicago. </p>

<p>My cumulative Gpa is 3.779 and science is 3.62. I am on the track to have completed or have ap credit for....
One year of General Chem, One year of General PHysics, Calculus I and II, University Writing, and a ton of core classes. </p>

<p>What do you think my chances are and what should I do to help my success? Also, do high school grades and ACT matter?</p>
