Thus, I do not think you will be flat out rejected based on your GPA and SAT scores. Whether you ultimately get accepted is a completely different story, however, which depends a lot on extracurricular activities and accomplishments. I hope this helps. Please do not hestiate to post follow-up questions or comments. Ilena,

I know schools like Harvard and Brown have to find some way to just eliminate some applications? Clearly they wouldnt accept someone with a 1200 SAT, regardless of if they have a 4.0 GPA.. But they wont just flatout eliminate my application because of my GPA/SAT, right? How do they narrow down the number of applicants? *I'm also very interested in inventing things.. but I overall want to pursue a career in the medical field. Oh and I forgot to mention, I'm looking at Harvard, Princeton, Brown, Columbia, Cornell and Stony Brook. I see that the panel of experts include harvard and princeton admission officers. So, would you please mind asking them? I know though.. with the increasing number of applicants, they might have changed their admissions policies.. like I've heard in the past, they were interested in well-rounded applicants, now they want more angular students who show a passion for something.

I have a 3.5 GPA and a 2290 SAT.. I also go to a very competitive school. I took my hardest classes junior year. There is an upward trend after I realized my work ethics suck and I needed to change that. as well as really good extracurriculars, awards, recs, leadership positions etc. I'm just worried about my GPA =/ I'm also in the process of creating this website that i think will really benefit the general public. It's something like wikipedia, except probably better! Hii I’m really scared..
