<p>Ok so I really screwed around in high school, and hence my low grades. Can I get into college with these grades? And I mean a 4-Year school, no community college.</p>
<p>2.6 - G.P.A ~ (3.9/6)</p>
<p>1870 - SAT (740)-CR (510)-Math (620)-Writing</p>
<p>750 - SATII~USHistory
780 - SATII~World History</p>
<p>Good Extracurrics - in a few clubs, hold leadership positions, have volunteered a good amount, and am involved in sports.</p>
<p>Should also get good rec's and I can write a good essay.</p>
<p>Yeah you can get into college. What state are you in?</p>
<p>new jersey</p>
<p>Hmmm…maybe try the New Jersey Institute of Technology</p>
<p>Try:
Rutgers
Ramapo
Seton Hall
Penn State</p>
<p>TCNJ? Not sure how selective they are though.</p>
<p>I’m not sure how friendly SUNY/CUNY are to out of state students, but you could look into those as well.</p>
<p>wow your scores alone are very good, and can more than make up for your slightly lower GPA at many publics and lower tier privates! good job and good luck :)</p>
<p>thnx guys…do you think i hav a shot at these schools?</p>
<p>Syracuse
James Madison
UMASS-Amherst
Temple
Indiana
Michigan State
Temple
Lafayette</p>
<p>bump…</p>
<p>bumpity bump bump</p>
<p>Yeah, just bump your SAT’s a bit (even though they’re great as is) and try to get your senior GPA up! You’ll be able to get into a college, no doubt. <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/743416-im-sooo-nervous-please-chance-me.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/743416-im-sooo-nervous-please-chance-me.html</a> please!</p>
<p>You have a decent shot at Temple. If you can raise your SAT Math 100 points, I’d say you’re definitely in.</p>
<p>I’d say UMass Amherst is a slight reach. I have friends that got in with similar stats as you, but we’re in-state. UMA isn’t as friendly to OOS applicants.</p>
<p>Syracuse- 40%
James Madison- its a possible reach depending on the other aspects of your app
UMASS-Amherst- not as much sorry.
Temple- 70%
Indiana- in bloomington, reach
Michigan State- ann arbor- no sorry. they are most definitely a numbers game/ other campuses, yes.
Lafayette - cant honestly say, I havent come across this one much in my research.</p>
<p>your SATs are fine, especially those SAT II’s.
I actually believe that in your case your not gonna get the most positive reaction out of state schools, where its a numbers game, you should go and look for Liberal Arts Colleges, because there your GPA is only one small step in the process. Good luck and chance back. also, your GPA ≠ end of the world

<p>bump…</p>
<p>what is ur major ?</p>
<p>Apply to LACs where they’ll focus more on your ECs and essay than on grades.</p>
<p>Yeah </p>
<p>SU: Quite a reach
JMU: Match/Slight Reach
UMass: Slight Reach
Temple: Match
IU: Match/Slight Reach, if for Kelley’s Bus. School then its Quite a Reach
MSU: Match/Slight Reach(I had a 3.0 GPA, with a 620m/520cr/490w and got accepted last year so never know if MSU will go more for GPA or SATs this year)
Lafayette: Never heard of</p>
<p>You should as people said above apply to </p>
<p>Rutgers
Penn State(all branches but mainly University Park)
SUNY schools
TCNJ(Is more education majors, and quite hard)
UDelaware
UMaryland
Drexel
Fordham</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Absolutely in no way does the OP have a 70% shot.</p>
<p>I’d say so, the avg GPA = 3.3
ACT range 21-26
SAT range 990-1150</p>
<p>they like course rigor, essays, and EC’s.
I do my research before I post here. I look at the ranges of admitted first year students, and when I look at the ranges I see the middle 50% meaning 25% fell above and 25% fell below. based on the stats I believe its more than a match = 50% but rather a 70% chance.
70% stands.</p>
