Question

My GPA: 2.98
SAT: 1600 verbal=430 math=710 Writing=460

I got this international certificate- Sun Certified Java Programmer
I've been working for four years- 3 hrs on weekdays 4 hrs on weekend from 9th grade to 12 grade (Web Application Developer)

I know i got really low on my SAT and GPA
but is it possible for me to get into MSU by having those good Extra curricular?

I applied for Electrical Engineering

I also applied for U of M... lol because that's my dream school

Answer 1

It doesn't look good. Extracurriculars just can't make up for poor grades.

My son's best friend couldn't get into MSU with a similar profile. (My son got in with much better grades and scores.) The friend attended UM/Dearborn for a year, got better grades, and then transferred to MSU.
