<p>so i know my gpa is on the lower side, but my EC are pretty impressive and rigorous so would they make up for my low gpa? thanks! please chance me :)</p>

2

<p>reach because of low test scores in math and science and slightly lower gpa</p>

3

<p>Slightly better than reach. Stats like gender/ethnicity/hooks would also help.</p>

<p>You do a lot of EC stuff, which is fantastic. I think for you, your acceptance/denial will hinge mainly on your essays as everything else seems to be pretty strong (it has been my experience that SAT II scores don’t weight too heavily in the decision, so don’t sweat it too much).</p>

<p>Do u have any hooks?</p>
