<p>Your CR on the SAT should be improved. Your SAT II in history NEEDS to be improved to at least a 700. Also, I myself posted that I was a AMC 10 and 12 participant and the poster ate me alive for it because I didn’t actually win anything. So, unless you won for your school or something, I don’t think just saying that you took the AMC 10 and 12 is that special. Your ECs are pretty good, nothing really stands out however. Also your class rank is kind of weak (top 25% is not that special) unless your school is really competitive.</p>
<p>Oh, and 44 community service hours is nothing when your faced with those who have hundreds of hours.</p>
<p>Your SAT IIs seem reallyy weak especially USHistory but if you get that up, then you should be in the running. Your SAT score is fine, a little on the low side, but good enough. Your GPA is also pretty solid and you look like youve taken a very rigorous classload, which boosts your chances a looot
Your ECs look okay and about average. Just fyi though, idk if participating in the AIME, etc is that much of an accomplishment, colleges really only pay attention if you placed or something. But it wont really hurt/help your resume</p>
<p>Johns Hopkins: reach
UPenn: high reach
Cornell: mid reach
Georgetown: low reach
Columbia: reach
Univeristy of Maryland: match
Duke: high match
Stanford: high high high reach
Wash U: high match
George Washington: match</p>
<p>I made the school team for the AMC (top 3 in the school). Is that special or anything?
My school is really competitive…thats why my class rank sucks.
Should I retake the chem SAT II?
Where should I apply early to? The college that I think I might be able to get in, the college I’m sure I can get in or the college I dont think I can get in?</p>
<p>And my GPA is out of 5. I think it would be around 3.5 unweighted. Is that still solid or no?</p>
<p>GTown only evaluates the math and CR scores of the SAT. Is my SAT still good enough ( 1430)?</p>
<p>Should I send my history score to colleges where the SAT II is recoomended? Or just send the other two?</p>
<p>I would love anyone who could answer any of these questionssss. THANKS!!</p>
<p>I only do the colleges I know enough about…
Cornell–match
University of Maryland–in
Wash U–high match
George Washington–in
Columbia–reach
Sanford–high reach</p>
<p>Just curious–why aren’t you taking a social studies as a senior? I think the ECs seem weak because there isn’t any leadership (which for some reason colleges love), and it kind of seems to lack a focus.
<em>Don’t</em> send your history score if a college only requires 2, btw. It could make your history class (if you got an A/A-) look really, really easy…</p>
<p>-3.5 is just slightly weak for those schools you’re looking at…I would say a solid unweighted would be 3.7+
-SAT I CR and math seem good enough; however, if you want to you may retake again, but I wouldn’t if I were you
-NO. Do not send the history score unless you plan to retake and get around 700 at least…=P</p>
I’ll try and start a club.</p>
