<p>You’ll get into main campus, but I’m not sure about SHC. A lot of SHC students are ‘ivy-competitive’ – and going off of your ACTUAL score, not a practice, your SAT score is going to be too low. Plus, your GPA is weird, as i don’t know how an unweighted can be out of more than 4. But the SHC application also depends heavily on your essays.</p>

<p>I’ll take the actual score.</p>

<p>Penn State regular: Low match/Match
Penn State SHC: Reach
UMI: Reach
BC: Reach
BU: High match
Drexel: Low match/Match
Emory: Reach
Temple: Safety</p>

<p>Alright, assuming that I have a higher SAT score, would this change the outcome of me being accepted to the higher tier colleges? Or my GPA is just too low?</p>
