<p>You can get in to basically all of these, and remember, try the SAT again!!
you’re good for all of these, except your dream schools (besides dartmouth)</p>

<p>Try the ACT. With a 2100 and SATIIs at 700, you would not be competitive for any of the dream schools and some of your reaches.</p>

5

<p>Which ones of the reach are you talking about ?</p>

<p>What should I raise my SAT and SAT II to ?</p>

6

<p>Any more suggestion ?</p>

<p>Can anyone please leave me some comments ???</p>

<p>For reaches definitely Pomona and Bowdoin would be tough.</p>

<p>For your dream schools 2200 would give you a shot as it’s about median at Dartmouth, 2300 really puts you in the running yet is still low for Yale. Mid to high 700’s on the II’s would e a start.</p>

<p>For reaches 2150 to be a decent candidate, higher at Pomona (should be in dream category) a it lower at Lafayette range schools.</p>

10

<p>I definitely love Bowdoin right now. It’s my number one school so what is my chance at getting in ? Is it really slim ??</p>

<p>What other schools should I look at also ?</p>

<p>with a 2100 SAT, that puts you at a disadvantage with some of your dream schools like yale, harvard, and MIT…i’d aim for at least a 2200, 2250 would be solid enough to give you a pretty good fighting chance with those top ivies and such :stuck_out_tongue: or, take the ACT! i heard its a lot eaiser…that said, the other schools you listed would be just fine with your score as it is
looking over your ECs, on face it looks like you do a lot of stuff but really you just went thru and listed all the stuff you’re involved in. it doesnt mention if you’re really into or indepth in any of these ECs…if that makes sense. think about one that you really enjoy/are good at and elaborate on that on your app…
good luck!</p>
