[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The odds of getting into CMU'S CS program are incredibly low.[/quote] [b]They are. Just as an example, we know a computer whiz kid that got into second choice Cal Tech. The admission rate to CMU CS and VA Tech might as well be an ocean apart for boys, not quite as bad for girls.[/quote][/b] Virginia Tech has gotten far more difficult to get into than you realize. The entering (not accepted figure, which is higher) class of 2018 had the following GPAs. Top 25% median: 4.25. Median 50% 4.15, bottom 25% 3.88. If you are not an URM, low income, first-generation or other minority type, then you need to be looking at the top 25% figures, especially for engineering. Composite ACT for top 25% entering class is a 31 and 1370 SAT. http://research.schev.edu//enrollment/B10_FreshmenProfile.asp[/quote]
