<p>Don’t know what to say. This is the 3rd WL I’ve got. Though Waitlisted by CIT kind of surprised me.
since I got into Caltech, every school is waitlisting me. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. </p>
<p>I think I won’t take a spot in the WL though. So good luck with you guys who are Waitlisted but still want to attend CMU.</p>

<p>wow, it must have been competitive this year.</p>
<p>I got into CIT ECE with the following last year:</p>
<p>SAT I: math: 620, reading: 640, writing: 590
SAT II: MathI: 590, MathII: 520, Physics: 550, Literature: 530.</p>
<p>Not joking. Guys, this school isnt about the scores. You need to have something that adds to the class.</p>
<p>Also, you come here to learn. You go to public school to get a piece of paper. Dont come here unless you want to actually learn something. Youll be challenged for what is probably the first time in your entire lives…</p>
<p>Financial AID doesnt come in the FAT envelope.</p>
