<p>I would say 60% chance. Since you are OSS, a 1380 is slightly below average. This may hold you back. Also, 5 AP's throughout high school is on the low end. Try taking more AP courses or self-study a few easy AP's to show you can handle rigorous courses. Your SAT II's are good and your EC's are definitely a noteworthy part of your application. I would advise retaking the SAT I and focusing a lot of time and energy into great essays. UVa is known for taking a lot of time reading essays and recs. Good Luck!</p>

<p>thank you for all the help!! i was debating whether or not to retake my SAT, now i think i probably will. as far as AP's go, we arent allowed to take them until junior year, and only 3 max per year. my school for some reason also doesnt allow self study..bizarre. they won't let you sign up for AP tests unless you take the class :(</p>
