<p>I think you have a great chance of getting in! I’ll post some of my stats to make you feel more reassured.</p>

<p>GPA: My school does it out of 100, my weighted is a 94, i’m pretty sure that is a 4.0?
My scores were not that great: 26 ACT/ 1780 SAT
I had a lot of extracurriculars but so do you! I’d say you’re in :)</p>

<p>SAT-1940
math-510
reading-630
writing-800</p>

<p>what worries me is what i found on their website about what they’re looking for…
"1100-1240 SAT for in-state students (critical reading and math only). 1160-1280 SAT for out-of-state students (critical reading and math only). "
and…
"Class rank in the top 15 percent "
because i transferred from private tp public school, my class rank is in the gutter…</p>

<p>any advice?</p>
