<p>^^^Seattle, I’m not sure I’d say UConn and Syracuse are “slam-dunk” safeties at the moment…</p>

6

<p>I didn’t think I could get into any of these schools except JWU. Jshain, what makes you say that? Give me some feedback?</p>

<p>Your SAT scores are definitely within range for Syracuse and UConn but they are more matches than safeties. You’re getting into more than just one school-- don’t worry!</p>

<p>@ipodnano</p>

<p>You’ll definitely get into more than one school on that list!</p>

14

<p>Brillant ECs, those are clearly your strong point. Study hard for the SATs in order to boost that score up. Getting some stronger stats will really help to improve your college app since you really don’t have anything else to worry about.</p>

<p>Chance me? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1181846-please-chance-me-some-my-dream-colleges-ill-chance-back.html#post12966588[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1181846-please-chance-me-some-my-dream-colleges-ill-chance-back.html#post12966588&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
