<p>ED duke, vandy, or northwestern. Pull a 2200 on the sat. That will put you at a good spot</p>

<p>thanks for your reply!</p>

<p>Your sat will not be too big of a problem, honestly. I know CC sees a 2200 as a magic number, but in reality these schools have middle 50 percentiles in the 2100’s and predicting admission based on them is very difficult because the acceptance are prety arbitrary because everyone is so competitive. However, do raise your sat II’s slightly to 700’s so they won’t stick out at all in the app.</p>

<p>With ED, 2100+ will be fine as it is still in their middle 50%. I’d recommend applying to Duke ED if you are interested, it really helps and you’ll have a decent chance. Maybe take the ACT in Sept or SAT/SAT IIs in Oct (sat iis are mandatory) but if you do well and bring up your score it will obviously help</p>
