<p>Also the people who wrote my recs went to Washu and Kenyon.</p>
<p>well this is disappointing</p>
<p>colleges don't really look at the writing score, that is the reason why they ask for you to write essays</p>
<p>No it's not lol. They ask you to write an essay so that they can get a better idea of who you are as a person. Writing ability is also taken into consideration, but it's not the main point of the essay.</p>
<p>Well, your GPA is low for those colleges, but I think that your SAT is around the average for those colleges. I think you can get into Washington University. You look like you're a good athlete, and I wrestle too! ( I am 125 this year), and well I think Georgetown is a reach because unless you go to Phillips Exeter, or some very prestigous schools where top 50% of applicants to go Ivies, then you are not in the best of luck, although you do have a good chance. It depends if you apply ED to Georgetown or not, if not I would say Georgetown is a reach.
