<p>Tufts is a reach, but not impossible, with these numbers, curriculum and ECs. I note, however, that just yesterday you reported your SATs as 690 M and 690 CR, and now it’s supposedly 710 & 700. What gives?</p>

<p>you caught me! hah just kidding, I’m taking the sat I’s again and after reviewing so much for calculus this year, i’m hoping my math score will go up a little. and i’ve been reviewing the reading a lot, so I just put these scores to see what my chances would be like if I actually got them the next time I took the sat.</p>

<p>but if someone wants to chance me based off the scores i actuallyyy got then that’s fine too!</p>

<p>thank you</p>

<p>I’ll be honest, as a CT person, CAPT doesn’t mean anything so don’t let them get your hopes up. Tufts is ridiculously selective. Also sports won’t help you for Tufts too much, they value international volunteer experience more. And your SAT scores are definitely not on the high end. Good luck though!</p>
