<p>My own opinion:
I personally know my SAT scores a bit low, i'm planning on retaking it and aiming for 2300. My grades aren't perfect but I think are still strong enough. I show enough leadership on my 2 academic teams (I feel). And my national win was really big i think...but still no state win :(</p>
<p>So plz let me know what you think! thanks so much.</p>
<p>Recall that I am out of state for all 3 schools and I am azn...</p>
