<p>Good chance. As long as you have a decent course rigor with some good math/science classes and a decent math/science ACT score.
Don’t sweat it, you’ll be fine.</p>
<p>just to make sure, i took ap calc bc and ap physics b last year and got a’s… and i got 35 math and 34 science.</p>
<p>Your unweighted GPA is even irrelevant. It’s all about class rank with UIUC. Top 10% and 2000+ is probably good enough for a spot in the engineering school. I’m a 2200 and 11%'er. I should get in but obvi I’m not positive.</p>
<p>What do you think about my chances at CompSci?</p>
<p>I am an IB student from Turkey. I have a 70/100(4/5) GPA, 1970(1390/1600) SAT score, working on a dual-diploma program which will result in receiving the national degree and the IB degree.</p>
<p>My courses: IB Mathematics HL / IB Physics HL / IB A2 English HL / IB Biology SL / IB Chemistry SL / IB ToK / IB A1 Turkish Linguistics and Literature SL and other national courses.</p>
<p>ECs: Lots of international and national project competitions, one patent, couple of commercial software</p>

<p>I am either accepted to CompSci or don’t even deserve to be in DGS. :)</p>
<p>I stupidly applied to the engineering program, but I know I probably(definitely) don’t have a shot at it. 31 ACT, 3.61 uw, not too many EC’s: 2 part time jobs, piano,nothing special: and an alright essay.
Do you guys think i have a shot at DGS? Or would i have had more of a shot if I had applied to DGS in the first place?</p>
<p>Relax. Nothing you can do 3 days from decision.</p>
<p>OMGMIT - I honestly don’t know about your chances. I don’t know how they will feel about your being from Turkey, but the courseload seems good. What was your SAT math score?</p>
<p>Bharglee - You have a fairly decent chance at engineering (GPA is on the low side), and I’d be shocked if you didn’t at least get into DGS.</p>
<p>My math section score was 750.</p>
<p>By the way, I don’t think that they have a different stance for Turkey, I wrote it to state that I am an international.</p>
<p>Oh sorry, I didn’t make that very clear; it’s generally known that it’s harder for internationals to get in. Preference is given to Illinoisans. </p>
<p>Your SAT math is very good. You have a solid chance, IMO.</p>
<p>Yeah, the international field is highly competitive.
There are plenty of qualified internationals who try for UIUC (often those who can’t go to MIT).</p>
<p>Glad I’m from the state.</p>
<p>Did UIUC send any emails about upcoming decision postings ? Other schools like U Mich, Georgia Tech seem to be notifying that the results will be coming soon, check the site etc.</p>
<p>^I haven’t received anything yet.</p>
<p>I applied ME with a 29 and 4.23 weighted. One of my friends says ME is the toughest engineering major to be accepted to is that true?</p>
<p>I don’t know anything about ME, but I’ve heard BE is pretty tough.</p>
<p>What time is the decision posted on Friday?</p>
<p>5 pm CST .</p>
<p>I just received an e-mail…</p>
<p>Just got the email from Illinois that they will be releasing the admission notifications online at 5PM on Friday, Dec 17th. Wish every one good luck.</p>
<p>Illinois process seem to be very organized compared to Mich where it is a bit confusing. What they said said on their website, what they communicated on email and what they are finally doing is very clear with no confusion at all.</p>
<p>Dang that’s 6pm for me, and I’ll be warming up for my basketball game! Hm…I think I’ll be relying on my blackberry…</p>
