yeah for some reason I had a friend score quite high on the SAT, the SAT it self + SAT 2 may not even be good enough for Yale.
AnswerEven with high numbers like yours, Yale is a bit out of reach. A senior I know couldn't get it. Here are his numbers:completed the IB program 4.0 unweighted about 4.7 weighted 2320 on the sat 3 800's on the sat subject tests band/marching band for all four years
yeah..i was surprised he didnt get in, even with over the roof numbers and stuff.. but Ivy League schools don't just look for numbers.. many people who make it to Ivy's have something special about them. For example, organizing a marathon, or some other uncommon tasks.
Not to discourage you or anything. You should still apply.. because the person they are looking for might just be you.
Well applications are basically over now.. are you a senior or junior?
But really, those numbers are still WELL within range for Yale. I know people with higher scores who didn't get in. I also know people with LOWER scores who did. Plenty of people in my class have scores lower than that, actually, but they had something very special about them (amazing dancers, fabulous athletes, talented actors, award-winning musicians, started up a business, etc) that "made up" for the still-very-good-but-not-the-best scores! The person-above-me's friend (who sounds amazing!) may not have gotten in, but the fact is more than 90% of people who apply don't! Just b/c one high-scoring person didn't doesn't mean that you won't! You still have as good a shot as any with those solid numbers. Good luck!
It's not too likely. If the GPA was increased to a 3.5 and in high school you were involved in several extra curricular activities there would be a fair chance. Also the essay(s) that are admitted during your application would help immensely also.
You're best bet is going with a 3.75 GPA, there's a higher possibility you'll get accepted.
No
what was Ben Carson GPA
In the 2011-2012 admissions cycle, the median GPA (unweighted) of students admitted to Yale was 4.00. This means that 4.00 was the most common GPA to show up among students who were accepted to Yale that year.
If you have a 4.5 GPA the chances of you getting in to Yale are high. You should apply early, so that you can be included in both decisions.
The Florida Gators basketball team has the highest GPA. The next four are Kentucky, Rollins, Yale, and Harvard. These are the top 5 GPA NCAA basketball teams.
It really depends on a case by case basis. Yale and Dartmouth do not have specific GPA cutoff's, however both are extremely competative to get into. The best thing you can with that GPA is make sure you have excellent reccomendations and and a very strong essay about why Yale or Dartmouth would be the best shool for you.
3.5 - 4.0
4.0 hahah
3.9 on 4.0 scale. Good Luck...
2.0
1.8 1.8
