My HS junior son wants to study mechanical engineering. He is thinking of applying to Purdue, University of IL, University of WI-M, VA Tech, NC State and Georgia Tech would be his first choice but not likely to be admitted. His SAT is 1450 with 770 in Math and he is planning to retake it this spring. Current unweighted GPA is 3.65. Weighted GPA is 3.86. What other schools should he be looking into as these school seem very difficult to get into? Also would be interested in schools that might offer merit awards. We are near Chicago. Thanks.
