Chances of Getting into PhD Program in Comp. Physics: 3.5 GPA, Top 20 LAC

PF Resident Academics...

I'd like to gauge my chances, seeing as there doesn't seem to be a large amount of statistics concerning phD acceptance.
I was wondering if you guys(or anyone extensively knowledgeable on the subject) could give me some insight on the quality of students accepted into phD programs. If I graduated with a GPA of 3.5, with the physics GPA being around 3.4-3.6 from a top 20 LAC with 2-3 research experiences along with extensive programming skills(including a computer science minor). Would I have a good chance to get into a phD program in computational physics? I realize the GRE is not included, but I can't necessarily estimate my possible score. Also I'm not sure if this helps but I'm of Filipino ethnicity. Any information is appreciated. xD

This website has the applicant profiles for acceptances and rejections to specific schools for the past 5 years.

Have look at profiles similar to yours and see where people were able to get in.

Okay that site there seems to be many questions with little answers even searching through the forums, and the 2012 Physics Graduate School acceptance/rejection thread here on PF is only one page...

Based on the information provided, it seems like you have a strong academic background with a GPA of 3.5 and a strong emphasis on physics and programming skills. In addition, your research experiences will also be beneficial as it shows your interest and experience in the field. However, admission into a PhD program in computational physics is highly competitive and there are many other factors that are taken into consideration such as GRE scores, letters of recommendation, and research interests. Your ethnicity may also play a role in the admissions process, as universities strive for diversity in their student body. Ultimately, there is no way to accurately predict your chances of getting into a specific program, but it is important to highlight your strengths and continue to work hard in all aspects of your application. Best of luck in your academic pursuits!
