<p>Your gpa must be super inflated at your school, at mine, kids who take 20 ap classes still max out at 4.6</p>

<p>UConn: high match
NEU: low reach
Rutgers: mid match</p>

<p>The only thing I would advise is to retake the SAT and look to bump up your SAT to at least 2000 (or try the ACT). Then honestly you could shoot for “better” schools (these are great schools on your list though! :))</p>

<p>Retake the SATs and assuming you get a 1900+,
UConn: match
NEU: high match
Rutgers: low match

<p>Everything depends on what state you live in.</p>

<p>If you live in Connecticut, then your chance of admission at UConn is decent, same thing with Rutgers if you live in New Jersey.</p>

<p>Northeastern is definitely tricky. You definitely have the GPA to get in, but it sounds like the grading system is very inflated at your school if you have a near perfect GPA with an 1880 SAT. Not saying it doesn’t happen, but correlation suggests it doesn’t occur often.</p>

<p>In any case, if you can retake the SATs and bring them up at least 150-200 points, then I would say you have a really good shot at Northeastern. Best of luck!</p>

<p>Chance back if you have time?
