<p>How is a 92 a 3.24? It should be a 3.7.</p>

3

<p>If you have a 3.24, it'd be a big reach.</p>

<p>On the other hand, 3.7 will give you a good shot.</p>

4

<p>Hard to say in or out. I'd say slight reach with a 3.7.</p>

5

<p>A 3.24 is like a B+ which is high 80s...reserving my final opinion pending clarification, but I would say good chance of getting in. Your SAT scores could be a bit higher, around 2100s and same with your SAT IIs, but due to a rigorous courseload and good grades (3.7ish?) as well as acceptable SAT and ECs, you have an excellent chance.</p>

6

<p>Isn't a 3.24 GPA the equivalent of getting 5 Bs (out of 6 classes) per semester?</p>

7

<p>i would say in, or waitlist. the fact that you are URM and a legacy will help you.</p>

<p>Are you from Stuyvesant?</p>

9

<p>what makes you say that?</p>
