Sat is low - how much did you get in math? Have you taken physics honors or AP physics 1?
Math SAT was 620; Honors Physics is this year
I’d say your in at Penn state from reading past posts. If not mistaken they care more about gpa. What major?
Aerospace Engineering. Also AP History and AP Bio test scores were 4’s.
The 620 Math is going to hurt for engineering but is 600+ so you have a shot.
How are you doing with Calculus?
Are you instate or OOS?
(Note that Engineering has a program with France and there’s some “French for engineering” class or program).
Apply early and have DUS or summer start as backup. Also surprisingly at NSO they allow you to change majors except for Business. Also, keep in mind you should apply early as last year engineering filled up early then normal.
thank you all - AP Calculus is now and to date a grade of 98 out of 100. I am OOS. Planning to apply EA.
Excellent.
In your general statement (if you haven’t sent it yet) mention that you love your calculus class and hope to continue with French (research that Engineering/French thing on the website then mention it to stand out a little. )
