<p>What’s your intended major?</p>

4

<p>Mathematics</p>

5

<p>Your SAT II Math 1 score is a little low and not very rigorous for a Math major. Are you going to take the Math II test and any other SAT II’s?</p>

<p>I know a 710 for Math I is not great, but i have tried to mask that through my math-related ECs. I received a 34 on my ACT math and a 32 on my ACT science. I was told by my college counselor that sending the ACT can count for SAT subject tests if I scored well enough, but thank you so much for the advice.</p>

<p>Good luck, daisy!</p>

<p>Michigan does not even consider SAT II scores unless the applicant is home schooled. In the OP’s case, the SAT II are not going to be considered. Besides, a 710 on the SAT II Math 1 is not bad. </p>

<p>This said, Michigan will not evaluate Daisy based on the major she declared, so she need not worry about that.</p>

<p>Daisy, Michigan is a match for you. Nothing jumps out, but you have a solid ACT and good EC. I like your chances.</p>

Wow I did not know that about Michigan’s SAT subject test policy! That makes me a little less nervous. Thank you so much :)</p>

<p>No problem daisy, now how about babysitting our 7.5 months old son Georges. He can’t crawl or sit down yet, but even then, he is a handful, and at 22 pounds, he makes for a hell of a workout!</p>
