<p>GPA(uw): 3.44 as of the end of junior year, should go up though since I have 2 AP classes this year
SAT: 1860(cr620, m580, w660) taking it again in october
ACT: taking it in october also hopefully will do well
ECs: council on diversity, key club, volunteer at elderly home, dancer for 13 years, softball recreation, art expo and some other small things
I'm a first generation, so with a strong essay and awesome recommendations what are my chances? I know tufts is definitely a reach but do I have a slim chance? please help and if you have any advice please and thank you!</p>
<p>NYU - Out of Reach,
NEU - Reach
PITZER - Don’t know
WELLESLEY - Out of Reach
TUFTS - Out of Reach</p>
<p>Given your GPA, you’re at least 350 SAT points away from being a competative candidate at most of these schools. I think you really need to be looking at a very different type of school.</p>
<p>You need to raise your SAT scores to about a 2000+ or if you take the ACT get a 29+. Even so, Tufts and Wellesley will be reaches. You probably have a good chance at NEU (if you raise your scores) and I’m not sure I’ve heard of Pitzer before.</p>
