<p>I am currently a Senior in Maryland. I have a 3.3 weighted/unweighted from 9-11 grade and a 3.75 unweighted and 4.2 weighted on my first marking period of 12th grade. I have a total of 16 AP/Honors (grade 9-12). My SAT was very low 1250 total (will retake in Dec, however I do poorly in those kind of test so I dont expect much better.</p>

<p>I am also a 4 year Varsity. I have a long list of volunteering activities and charitable involvement as well. </p>

<p>Any chances for: JMU (James Madison), GM (George Mason), UVA, Penn state, Salisbury, Frostburg, UMD baltimore county?</p>

<p>UVA- High reach
JMU - reach
Penn state - reach
GM - Reach
Salisbury - low reach
not sure about the rest</p>

<p>Sorry man :frowning: You should work hard to get that SAT up, it’s going to be pretty important.</p>

<p>Almost all reaches. You really need a tutor and to practice daily for the SAT. Good luck! Please get me back.</p>

<p>Are you guys sure? My SAT was very low about 1250 total (420,410,420) of 2400. I was told you have to have at least 1600 to get in those colleges.</p>

<p>My goodness… that SAT score is abysmal. A 3.75 unweighted GPA with 16 AP/honors classes shows that you’re obviously smart and above average, a 1250 does NOT correlate with that. You sure you didn’t have issues bubbling in the right spots? Maybe you got off at some parts and that tanked your score?</p>

<p>You definitely want a 1600 MINIMAL but you should aim for 1800+. </p>

<p>Currently UVA is out of reach and others are generally reaches as well.</p>

<p>Have you tried to take the ACT? Some people do better on that test than the SAT. As far as SAT goes, I am not sure about the other schools on your list, but JMU only looks at CR and M scores. Not writing.</p>

<p>When I took the PSAT I did bad as well. I am planning to take the ACT but the lady that provided the PSAT at that time told me that I did bad in both, so score was the same.
I just get very stressed out and I cannot remember anything during the test, i totally blackout. I think my only option will be if one of those colleges will not take the SAT score into consideration. I did took a SAT class but I guess didn’t work out.
Thanks everyone for the response.</p>
