<p>so basically, my main concern is my 31 ACT score, which is apparently in the middle 50% for ED at Vandy (31-33). do you think that my ec's, use of ED, grades, SAT II, APs, and summer at Vanderbilt will push me through despite my ACT score? Also, what about the other schools (i'm instate for UCs)?</p>

<p>bump 10char</p>

<p>Vandy-low reach
Michigan- High match
UVA- high match
Which UCs ??</p>

<p>Berkeley, LA, SB</p>

<p>bump anyone else? would be greatly appreciated</p>

<p>bummmmppppp</p>

<p>Berkeley: low reach
Ucla: match to high match</p>

<p>Santa barbara: safety</p>

<p>Very good chance for UCs except Berkeley ;)</p>

<p>“stressed senior”, you sound amazing. especially your job at subway, that sounds very time consuming</p>
