Chance for Stony brook?

<p>SAT Superscore: 1900 (Took 3 times. I'm a senior)
Math: 730
Reading: 630
Writing: 540
EC: Particpated in school clubs, but not much other than that.</p>

<p>GPA: 79.4 Unweighted (School doesn't do weighted averages). I'm trying to raise it to at least a 80 by end of this semester</p>

<p>Also a lot of kids from my school (500+) apply to Stony Brook every year, and apparentally last year a lot of kids got admitted but ended up not going, so I heard this year they will be more stricter on kids from my school… Does stuff like this really happen? My high school is competetive and is well known</p>

<p>To answer your question in your second post – no, we don’t operate like that. Our application review is based on the application, not whatever your school does (or did).</p>

<p>Hi friend. Great job on your stats! I plan on going to Stony Brook too - it’s literally my dream school. </p>

<p>Anyways, I feel like you have a really good chance at getting into Stony Brook. You have strong SAT scores (unlike me; I have a 1100 combined CR+M and ugh I hope this doesn’t stop me from getting in) but like you said, try to improve on your G.P.A. Other than that, make sure you have a killer essay and at least two good recommendation letters.</p>

<p>Good luck in your college application process!!! I hope you get into Stony Brook! :+)</p>
