What is your unweighted GPA? What are your SAT Subject Test scores? What scores did you get on any AP tests you took last year? Where do you stand in your class and what geographical area are you applying from?</p>
<p>I got a 5 on world and russian, and a 3 on bio and calc (terrible teachers for both, but that's a different story.)
710 math I
680 bio
650 world

<p>i don't know my unweighted gpa, school doesn't release it. school also doesn't rank.
thanks.</p>
<p>Your SATs are competitive, but not overwhelming for Tufts. Your SAT2s are marginal. On the APs, the 5 on Russian was to be expected; the 5 on World is good and the two 3s are obviously disappointing. I think that your ECs are okay but hardly overwhelming.
You are obviously a fine student and deserving of admission at any number of excellent schools; the problem is that there are tons of applications to Tufts from your part of the country. You need to play up that which makes you stand out, which is not your "numbers." Make your essay sing; perhaps talk about your immigrant background and how that makes you special in the applicant pool.
Good luck!</p>
