<p>Please let me know what you think my chances are and whether or not more information is necessary to judge.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>I think you have an excellent chance… what do you want to apply for though?</p>

<p>I was thinking of applying for the College of Humanities and Social Sciences.</p>

<p>You are definitely in with those stats however you don’t meet the SAT II Subject Test Requirement. Students must have a math subject test with any other additional subject test. It would be advisable for you to take a math subject test but if you don’t due to the time restraint it won’t destroy your chances. CMU is very reasonable and I have seen people on campus who did not take SAT II’s.</p>

<p>i think you have an excellent chance!!</p>

<p>I’ve already taken the SAT II in Math, I just don’t have the results yet.</p>

<p>k then you are pretty much set</p>

<p>great chance, especially since you’re applying to HSS.</p>

<p>go to uva …</p>
