<p>I know my grades aren't that great, I have like no EC's, only a couple leadership positions, and just about 200 or so volunteer hours but I really want to go to Pepperdine. So, what are my chances?</p>

<p>Good chance – raise that SAT I.</p>

3

<p>Thanks. What should I shoot for?</p>

4

<p>For the SAT shoot for a 2000, for the ACT, a 30. It’ll be a match if you can get scores like those. =]]goodluck.</p>

5

<p>Uh…I’m sort of confused as to why you have two separate threads for the exact same purpose…</p>

<p>I think this is the first year Pepperdine is using the common app. Based on previous results, it might make sense to look at the “old” essay prompts, and factor that in. It never seemed that “stats” alone could explain the unusual "selectivity.</p>
