<p>^Bump…a little help here guyzz please…</p>
<p>you’re in for sure.and where are you from india</p>
<p>Your SAT looks okay, but I think your GPA is low. GPA’s are cumulative through 11th grade (not grade by grad) and yours looks like it would be about an 87/100. I’m not sure exactly how that translates to a 4.0 scale, so maybe I’m wrong, but I think it’s low. Good Luck!</p>
<p>I was thinking about your GPA and I think you may be okay. I think a 87 would be around a 3.4. If you get denied you can always call admissions and say you would be willing to apply to DUS (undecided). Then you could take classes and apply to the major later. Supposedly, this helps get a lot of kids accepted. Remember that this is only an opinion. Again, good luck! </p>
<p>@Kvillemom , In India, 11 class papers are evaluated very critically and almost all students get gpas like this…I was in top 5%. Thanks for the advice though… :)</p>
<p>I’m sure they take the info provided by the guidance counselors into account for GPA. If your school is that rigorous that would be in your favor.</p>
So I got in…
Congratulations!!
And Welcome to Penn State!
