<p>That GPA (3.45 UW)is going to slaughter you at a lot of places despite the SAT scores… ED can only help - I think RD is a serious reach but who knows. you would be seriously rolling the dice in RD. Good luck!</p>

<p>maybe you should first apply to your top state school. I hate uw gpas as well…but they will not be the only aspect to your application. Maybe you might be the exception lol :slight_smile:
Who knows…so apply</p>
