<p>Thank you for your time.</p>

<p>great ec’s, try to get your gpa up to a 3.5 and aim for 2200+ on sat or 33+ on act</p>

<p>GPA even with a 3.5 is way too low. As of now, GPA is in the auto reject range.</p>

<p>Practice for the SAT. I didn’t and regret it terribly. I scored a mediocre score compared to the applicants on this forum, and I have nothing else that might abet me at this point. Don’t regret it like me!!! Great EC’s btw. Best of luck!!! Only two more years! If you do apply, let us know if you get in.</p>
