There’s not much you can do about your GPA, but you can bring that SAT up. Unless there are other awards that I am missing, your ECs don’t seem to stand out much, and there’s not much you can do about your GPA, but you can bring that SAT up to compensate. If you are waitlisted at any of the schools, doing well your senior year and sending in the transcript to the schools (with a better UW GPA senior year compared to your previous years in spite of increased course rigor) could pull you off the wait list and into acceptance.</p>

<p>I’d call them both matches to high matches. Try to raise that SAT score before you apply, if you can. </p>

<p>Would you consider attending City College as a safety?</p>

<p>Thank you guys for all the replies!
and Catria, I know that City College has a good pre-med track but I’m also interested in majoring in corporate finance or something along those lines and I’m too sure if City College can provide best opportunities for me in that field.</p>
