<p>Everything is solid except your SAT I. You may want more safeties, even if your SAT scores do improve as expected.</p>

<p>Jlee, there is not a single safety school on this list. While UCI and Michagan are just small reaches, Washington U, Pomona, NU, JHU and the top UCs are enormous reaches. With mid tier UCs having averages of about 4.0/1870, you need to choose some lower UCs, CSUs and affordabe private colleges you are in range for as match and safety schools.</p>

<p>I also forgot to add that I was on Science Olympiad this year and most likely next year as well.</p>

<p>@CelaPlusAimaple & Resrosed:</p>

<p>I’ve been also thinking about applying to UoP, UCD, and UCR as safeties as well, would it be better to apply to those three colleges and not apply to pomona and Ann Arbor? Since from what I’ve heard, Pomona’s acceptance rate is pretty low if it only has ~2k undergraduate students.</p>

<p>Also, should I consider applying to Pepperdine? The only reason I have so little Safeties is because I’m actually not that knowledgeable when it comes to the smaller colleges.</p>
