<p>I think you’ll definitely get in! I got a 33 on the ACT, took only 3 AP classes, less extracurriculars, have a MUCHHHHH lower ranking/GPA, and I still got in for CS… you should be fine :)</p>

<p>Your in. They’ll look at your GPA and ACT (which are good but not stellar), and I doubt they’ll even take a look at your E.C’s. But you’re an idiot for wanting to do CS or CE. There are other engineering majors which are much much more interesting than those two. My advice, go into some other engineering major and get a minor in CS.</p>
