<p>I'd say you have a pretty good chance. I got accepted ED for the class of '11, and you have slightly higher SAT scores and AP classes then me. Being a girl might make it tougher, just because Geneseo has an uneven girl/guy ratio, but your intended major might help because I don't think a lot of people go into phisosophy.</p>

<p>You will have no problem getting into Geneseo. I know a ton of people from my school got in last year with stats much lower than yours (one non-minority, non-athlete with a 1280/1600 and an 88%...I'm not sure what that is on a 4.0 scale).
I wouldn't be worried, you have really strong numbers and plenty of tough classes...your ECs are numerous as well.
Best of luck!!</p>
