Bing is A LOT easier to get in from OOS (i'm from Florida.)
As for Tulane, umm? My letters of rec are good, I have tons and tons of leadership, and am a very good writer=good essays.</p>

<p>level 4/5 (3.42)</p>

<p>Miami EA my best acceptance so far</p>

<p>My GPA is barely 3.7 weighted.</p>

<p>I got into U of Rochester. I think the average GPA there is quite a bit higher, but I did ED, am URM and have good SATs so I guess it isn't terribly out of the ordinary.</p>

<p>I am taking a very rigorous course schedule and pulled straight As my jr year (but I had 2 Cs my sophomore year). </p>

<p>I am also taking organic chemistry at a local 4 yr uni and doing research with my professor there.</p>

<p>I also got into UIUC engineering (instate), UM-TC chemical engineering with scholarship, and Colorado school of mines with scholarship. </p>

<p>Grades AREN'T everything, but they are important. If you don't have the grades, do something else to set you apart.</p>

<p>I got into umich with a 3.3 (they don't count freshman year, which unfortunately was by far my best).</p>

<p>my school does only weighted gpa.
how do colleges recalculate gpa? </p>

<p>is it 4 for A and 3 for B or do they look at A- and B+?</p>

<p>3.7 weighted or unweighted?</p>
