Hi guys, I am a male in NJ.
ACT: 35 (one sitting)

10 APs total - 5 senior year

Good ECs ( captain of the varsity tennis team, 4 year varsity, completed programming nanodegree, etc)

Intended Major: computer science

Demonstrated Interest: visited campus, off campus admission event, met with admission counsler at high school visit, requested alumni interview.

I am applying Early Action.

Any feedback is much appreciated!!

What courses have you taken Junior and senior years?
How are you doing in your classes so far this year?

Also if you visited campus you don’t need to do an alumni interview. Those should be reserved for those who can’t get to campus.

I took 4 APs and 1 honors junior year. I did very well in all of them

Senior year I’m taking 5 APs and doing pretty good

I spoke to my admissions counsler and she said that because I had a family issue that impacted one of my grades junior year I should do the interview to fully explain that in addition to the additional information section on the common app.

WHich APs are you taking?

I would say with an 35 ACT and a good GPA you have a very good chance.

I would think you would have a very good chance.

Look at previous “results” threads to see how you fit in:
