Hey!! For CalPolySLO, how selective are they with the MCA Score? Mine is approximately 4700-4850. I’m not sure because of classes and hours worked and ACT/SAT scores.
Im going as an electrical engineering major. I want to go undeclared engineering but I dont think they let you.
GPA: 4.26 UC/CSU
Dont know UW.
ACT: 33
32 E 35M 30R 34S 28W
Superscored: 34
34E 35M 33R 34S 33W
SAT Subject:
Math 2; 800
physics; 710
Good recommendations from my STEM Teachers,
A+'s in all my STEM courses.
But,I dont have any STEM extracurriculars. I have work experience tho…
I have a lot of extracurriculars pertaining to service, with a few awards and leadership positions.
According to others, I am a pretty solid candidate, but I would love to go here.
Im applying to the top 4 UC’s as engineering, along with CPP.
Should I worry? Thanks.
P.S. Im prepared for the 16 unit workload and what an EE handles. As long as I get in, I’ll be satisfied.
Whoops! Made a mistake, how can I calculate my ACT Score? I did my SAT, which is what I calculated. Im sure my ACT is better but I cant find an accurate conversion. Help?
Other threads in this forum have suggested that CPSLO looks at math and English scores, and ignores the reading, science, and writing scores (you seem to say writing is a 33, by the way, but I thought it was 2 to 12?).
Superscored: 34
34E 35M 33R 34S 33W
So, maybe your 34E and 35M will combine for a 34.5, which is then converted?
If so, based on the chart, that’s comparable to an SAT score of somewhere between a 1490 and a 1590, probably right in the middle, i.e. about 1530-1540. Pretty good!
@eetrojan thanks! the conversion is kinda weird. Most tables are different and may not even be right. Since the essay for the ACT changed this fall, its out of 48, which is then set to a 1-36 scale.
I don’t. It was part of the power point linked in keys to the kingdom, but it has since broken. I saved a PDFs, but can’t cut and paste from it. Sorry.
