I actually got to visit Cal Poly and was kind of shocked at how high the average test scores were for engineering which is why I panicked with a 30. This year it is 33! It is actually like that pretty much everywhere, you kind of have to dig down to find out what the scores are for the engineering college, and they’re always higher. Sometimes a lot higher
The frustrating thing was that my counselor didn’t seem to understand that it was different for engineering but my mom kind of knew because my brother is an engineer so we figured it out
insanedreamer, Texas A & M was on my list but I ran out of time and am past the date where I might get into the honors college which I would really want to do at a huge school like that. Their application required like 5 essays and they don’t take the Common app. Didn’t think my chances were good anyway since they take so few OOS. Oh well.
