Any chances?

<p>So I have been trying to see my chances for some schools but no one ever replies. I'm a Hispanic male and my grades are
90 average
SAT:
CR-420
Math-730
Writing-400
1150/1600
Im studying really hard for next SAT for reading and writing but out of every subject there is in school english is my worst.
Act: 22 did very well in science and math but not reading or writing.
I have been on cross country team and Crew. I have a job as an assistant manage. I am in band and i went to Science And Research Awareness Series at Stony Brook in summer 2011. I hope because im Hispanic they wont criticize me on my english. I have taken AP Bio and im taking AP Calc BC and AP Chem as well.</p>

<p>UB 2011
Test Scores – 25th / 75th Percentile

<p>I think you have a fair chance to be admitted.</p>

<p>Thank you for replying</p>

<p>You definitely have a chance!! I was just accepted through early decision and I had a 84.77 GPA and got a 1200 combined SAT and an 1820/2400. Keep in mind they also take your essay and extracurriculars into consideration so make these points strong on your application. Best of luck!</p>

<p>I retook the sat so i have
Cr-490
Math-730
Wr-490
1220/1710
My first quarter grade was around a 99 weighted average and 92/93 unweighted. so I hope they ask for my first quarter grades</p>

<p>You will def. get in. I got in ED with 84 average and 1190 CR+M</p>

<p>My son got in ED to the engineering college with a 87 UWGPA and 660 Math/640 CR. UB completely ignores the SAT writing section. You can easily use your application essay to bring up your language issues indirectly or as a “challenge overcome”. Being Hispanic will help, not hurt, especially if you’re looking at the math or sciences majors. You definitely need a well thought out and well-written application essay (ask a teacher for help) and a good recommendation letter. Also note that UB looks at the highest CR score and the highest Math score you received even if they were on different test dates.</p>

<p>My teacher has a PhD in linguistics and ancient language, so I had him help me with my essay.</p>
