UIUC Mechanical Engineering?

<p>GPA: 4.51 W and around a 3.9 UW Core and a 3.95 UW
ACT: 32 (36 E, 34 M, 22 R, 34 S)
I'm also sending in one with a better reading score 31 (32 E, 34 M, 28 R, 28 S)</p>

<p>I had a small 3 week internship this past summer at a engineering company.
I am part of National Honor Society, DECA, board member of class government for last 3 years, member of Investment club, Spanish Honor Society, I completed a Saturday Morning Physics course at Fermilab (local research center).</p>

<p>I think I have a pretty nice chance of getting in, only downfall is very poor reading score, but high GPA should account for it since I am in around the top 5%. </p>

<p>What do you guys think?</p>

<p>Also, is mechanical engineering harder than any other engineering disciples? Does it require higher stats?</p>

<p>I think ME is around the average or slightly above average in admission stat within Engineering school. Where is your home state? Your uwGPA is around admission average while your ACT is slightly below admission average. It should be a match for in state but a high match to low reach for OOS.</p>
