I have safes (Binghamton, Tulane, Miami) and I’ve already gotten into Kelley Business School at Indiana.</p>

<p>First of all, I'm really sorry about your father. I dont know too much about the chancing process, but i think u have a good chance to get into a couple of your higher schools. good luck</p>

<p>im sure that you will get into lehigh and michigan. im not knowledgable enough on the others, but i would certainly say that you have high chances at most of them. if it helps, i know someone who got into WashU early decision with a 32 and a 3.9, that's pretty similar to what you have, and you cant really go too wrong with a 34 ACT</p>

<p>i am really sorry about your father as well, what you must have gone through with him and your mom being sick must have been extremely hard to deal with. did you write about that in an essay or anything? if colleges that are aware of circumstances such as these, it can really only help you.</p>

<p>I did write an essay about both my parents, and my guidance couselor wrote about it in her recommendation. I also am friendly with the superintendant, and he wrote me a reco regarding the issue</p>

<p>i think you'll be fine, considering how much u had to go thru =(</p>

<p>btw what school? ikno someone who says that they go to the top public school in long island</p>

<p>Honestly, I think that you have very good chances at all the schools you have mentioned above. Good luck and I hope you get into your top choices.</p>
