<p>Personally I think you have a great chance at most of these except perhaps Georgetown and Notre Dame, which are always gambles. But your EC’s are spectacular, as is your GPA. The only thing I would suggest is seriously upping your test scores. I did well on the SAT, but I found the ACT so much easier so if your scores are unable to get into the ranges you need I would advise taking the ACT. Good luck!</p>

<p>I really don’t get this, how do people in the top of their class with APs do so poor on the SAT? If you manage to get 90s in those classes, it shouldnt be hard to get a 90 on the 9th grade level SAT which is a 1420~</p>
