<p>Any other highly ranked undergraduate business schools (or those that specialize in finance) please chance me with those too. I know the list may seem erratic at best, but these are some of my main choices.</p>

<p>USC has a good business program, it’s close to where you live, and you have a good chance of getting n.</p>

<p>bumping this so people can chance</p>

<p>Bumping this again.</p>

<p>Bumping yet again. Please chance this.</p>

<p>Here’s what I think…</p>

<p>YOU NEED TO RETAKE THE SAT!</p>

<p>You can easily break 700 in all the categories. Easily.</p>

<p>Do that and I don’t think that there is a school on your list that you cannot get into. You’ve got a great resume. A couple are a bit more of a stretch, but well within reach. (Stretch = most difficult, but with 700s across the board, you’ll be in)</p>

<p>Omniscient says to stop focusing on these silly chance threads that have no impact on your actual application and focus on improving your SATs. May you strengthen an already adequate application at this moment, and good luck. Rest assured–as I know this–you will do well in admission season. And this should be comfort enough.</p>
