<p>If you’re good at basketball/volleyball, you should try talking to Harvey Mudd or CM, because they’re D3 schools, and the coach pulls do have an effect on admissions. Trust me. UCs you should be fine, and don’t even bother taking senior year AP tests, by all means take the courses, but if you’re gonna be applying to those schools, I don’t think the test credit will do much for you…
My bro got into all those schools + Vanderbilt + Emory + Wash U + Wake Forest + Berk
with a 3.7 UW and a 4.4 W (similar to your stats), however his ecs were a bit stronger, and his ACT was a 34… idk how that translates w/ the SAT.
GL though, I’m also a junior so you’ll be competing with me! :D</p>

<p>hahah i never thought of that. D3 schools don’t recruit right?
i thought taking the course but not the test is bad?
yeah i took the SAT again and i’m predicting over 2250 so hopefully (:
and good luck to you too! thanks for the awesome chance</p>

<p>bump…</p>

<p>Yea it is, but by the time senior year comes around, AP testing doesn’t matter because you’ve already made it into a college, hence it can only get you credits, but most competitive colleges won’t accept them. D3 schools don’t formally “recruit”, but the coaches can give you a really strong pull for admissions, and they give you “financial aid” rather than a scholarship lol…</p>

<p>Also, do you mind chancing me too? Thanks (:
If you decide to check my thing out, it says how I talked with a few D3 colleges… If you’re decent, contact the coach and you have a shot. Trust me, it’s worth a try.

<p>ALSO, UCs really look mainly at your SATs, SAT IIs and your GPA, so you should be fine for UCs</p>
