<p>I think your SAT needs to go up 50 points at the minimum to have a chance. That 490 CR is killing you.</p>

<p>even if i am instate?</p>

<p>In-state, probably in. I didn’t see that. You should probably still try to get the SAT up a little.</p>

<p>I hate to break it to you, but statistically your SAT score puts you in the bottom 10% of the freshman class to years ago and your GPA puts you in the bottom 25%. Keep in mind that the test scores have been steadily rising, so your chances are not great. </p>

<p>You should definitely apply as your in-state status will help you immensely, but if I were you I would try my hardest to raise your SAT score if at all possible.</p>

<p>i am retaking the SAT’s this weekend and i am feeling really confident. i have studied a lot, but i am still applying early admissions, sending in my old scores, and then sending out my new scores right when they come out. do i have a better chance applying early?</p>
