<p>What is the biggest factor that plays into getting an interview? GPA? Rank? SAT? I have a horrible GPA (3.3 w/ AP's, Top 10%), but good SAT (2320). Would I get an interview? I need honest answers because I don't want to waste a plane ticket to PSU based on false optimism.</p>
<p>I would say a good SAT is probably pretty important.</p>
<p>As for the interview, it's not at PSU and you've gotta set aside some dough to fly all around to these places.</p>
<p>The interview is also the last step. Meaning if you get to that and ace it, you're in</p>
<p>sat is important to get the interview (of course, with good essays), after that, the interview is most important.</p>
