University of Maryland College Park Honors College and A. James Clark School of Engineering

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hello, I would like to know what you guys think of my chances into getting into the Honors College and A. James Clark School of Engineering. I'm applying early action and I live in-state. The major I'm mainly interested in is Computer Engineering and if I got into the Honors College the living and learning program I'm most interested in is ACES.</p>

<p>My unweighted GPA is 3.72/4, weighted is 4.26/5
My class rank is 42/538
My superscored ACT is a 33/36/35/36 (composite 35) and I got a 780 on the Math II subject test
I have taken (including senior year) 11 AP classes and 14 Honors classes
For extracurriculars:
National Honor Society (since end of sophomore year)
Interact Club (community service club, since beginning of junior year)
Garden Club (helps clean up and plants new plants around the grounds of my school, since beginning of junior year)
JV football and baseball my freshman and sophomore years
Varsity football my junior and senior years
As a junior, was one of the 10 semifinalists in Maryland for the United States Senate Youth Program
As a senior, have an internship with the Department of Defense as a computer aide where I work 20-32 hours a week every week from beginning of September until the end of the school year
I also actively participate in and help with functions at my church as well as do more community service through them
I have accumulated between 225-250 volunteer hours throughout high school, I don't have an exact number
I also was the treasurer of my graduating class from freshman to junior year. I was unable to be treasurer my senior year due to my internship taking up too much time.
I also have received a scholarship from the Korean American Scholarship Foundation for $500 and will receive a larger one (between $2000 and $10000) annually starting next year until I finish college</p>

<p>My GPA and class rank aren't as high as I'd like but that was due to me slacking off a bit in my classes at the end of my sophomore and beginning of my junior year, although I was taking lots of hard ones while doing sports and the like.
Any feedback on what you think would be great, thank you.</p>

<p>I went to the Maryland Marquee Day and talked with both the head of the honors college and the head of computer/electrical engineering and they both said I was a great student and person in general with good extra curriculars but I also just wanted to know what other people thought as well because I really want to get into both.</p>
