<p>I guess you can say I have underachieved throughout high school. I read some of the other threads on this forum and you guys are really smart. I do not compare with 90% of you guys. I am actually kind of embarassed to show you guys my stats hahaha</p>

<p>OK here it goes:</p>

<p>GPA: 3.53 (out of 4) <-----brought down greatly by spanish
Rank: 17/190 (top 10%)
I have only taken 6 honors courses and 1 AP (including senior classes)
SAT scores: writing-570 critical reading: 610 math: 710 (will take them again in Nov. hoping to improve)
have not taken the ACT</p>

<p>COLLEGES
Pennsylvania State- University Park (engineering or computer sciences)
Rutgers-New Brunswick (engineering, computer sciences, or PharmD)
St. John's (PharmD)
Seton Hall (engineering or computer sciences)
New Jersey Institute of Technology (engineering or computer sciences)
University of Sciences in Philadelphia (PharmD)</p>

<p>Also, if you have reccomendations for other colleges I should apply too, feel free to share!</p>

<p>THANKS FOR THE HELP!!!!!!</p>

<p>You'll be fine for your choices.</p>

<p>Sounds realistic to me. Since you are interested in a number of fields, I would probably choose one of the larger schools, so that you have more options to change majors.</p>

<p>All matches and safeties, as far as I can tell. You might want to look at Carnegie Mellon and add it as your big reach, and maybe add Case Western Reserve as your slight reach. Would have to take SAT2s for both, though, I believe. Also might want to consider Rensselaer Poly Tech.</p>

<p>Thanks a lot guys. It is very good to know that you guys think I can get accepted into my college choices. Also, thanks for other reccomendations. Any more input will be appreciated.
THANKS!</p>
