Hello! My high school did away with class rank. Now we have Summa *** Laude, Magna *** Laude, *** laude, and the "rest".

I'm in Summa *** Laude. I''m thinking about applying at MIT or some IVY League school. They usually pick up people from the top 10%.

So my question is:
1. Is that a good rank? I don't know my exact number.

2. How will those colleges view it?

3. I have a 3.4 GPA, HOWEVER, when you add in my honors credit its closer to a 3.9), also my school has a weird system wherean 'A' starts at 92 and I have a bunch of 90's. How will they figure that out?

Undecided/Undeclared major- will it affect my admittance chance?

I am about to apply to college; however, I currently do not have a major in mind. I would like to send in my apps as an undecided/undeclared major. Will this lower or affect my chances of being accepted to the college?

I know it is better to try different subjects that I am interested during my first year to determine my major, but I'm worried that if I choose an undecided major, I might not be accepted to my target/reach schools.

Does declaring as an undecided major affect my acceptance rate? If so, would it be better to choose a random major then to switch after being accepted? Or should I just go as an undecided major?

(I am applying to all the UCs, Purdue, University of Illinois- UrbanaChampagne+Chicago (both UIUC and UIC) and SanDiego State University.)

Thanks to all the readers who took the time to read and help answer this question.

Which college would be a good match for me?

I'm interested in going into the field of engineering (biomedical or civil) and I'm a senior high school student. I want to find a good college in California that would be great for engineering. I've looked at Cal Berkeley, but are there any others to consider? My grades are pretty good (4.3 weighted cumulative, ACT 30, E.C activities etc.) so any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
