<p>Nope. Good shots at all. Pretty strong candidate, and your URM status pretty much clinches it... will be surprised to see more than two rejections or waitlists, at most, from any of those schools. Just work on the SATs a bit and yeah, you're there.</p>

3

<p>You're Native American.</p>

4

<p>Looks good... In fact, you might want to try to aim higher.</p>

5

<p>"You're Native American."</p>

<p>-ditto.</p>

6

<p>a 4.5 native american = clinch anywhere.</p>

7

<p>Here's the thing, though. Do you have a tribal ID/registration number?</p>

<p>If yes, I agree with the above.</p>
