<p>Chance me on “ivies and a few others, please”</p>
<p>sat’s low, not applying for finacial aid will help. Good Luck prob 50/50 odds ed</p>
<p>Low reach. Scores should be raised a little because you only took one AP.</p>

<p>I’ll be frank with you…SAT scores are usually first cut and with your scores, you’ll probably need to bring them up to be considered.</p>

<p>My son was accepted to Colgate despite the negative feedback here on “low” SAT’s. So many important factors included not needing financial aid, playing the french horn -something in common with the admissions officer he met several times, talking tons of AP classes in 12th grade and nailing them in the 1st quarter of his senior year, etc., etc. Bottom line is you never know. Applying early definately had a huge impact I’m sure!</p>
<p>Your ECs and gpa are great, and should probably make up for you SAT scores. I’d say you have about a 65% chance of getting in, so I guess that would make it a match. </p>
