<p>I have not yet taken the SAT or ACT, but am signed up for both. I plan to take SAT II's. </p>

<p><strong>I'm also an avid DotA player and LAN party participant. Huzzah.</strong></p>

<p>Anyways, is it too early to tell without scores? I just want a general idea of where I might have a chance of getting in to. Thankee kindly.</p>

<p>What is your unweighted gpa/ AP scores?
It’s a little hard without SAT’s/ ACT’s but those would be a good start at least.</p>

<p>hm, can’t find my most current report card at the moment. But if it helps, the AP class that I’ve taken and completed thus far (AP Euro) I got a 5 on the test on, and I got a 218 on the PSAT. </p>

<p>Dunno if that helps you at all. You’re probably right and it’s a bit too early to tell, though.</p>

<p>Only weak thing are the ECs, otherwise you’re a great candidate for any institution. :)</p>
