<p>High GPA and rank with lower ACT and AP scores screams easy high school. Being a minority will help. Get your ACT to at least a 33 and you’ll have a good shot.</p>

<p>I thought that they dont get the AP scores until admission</p>

<p>^Southeast Asian American is NOT an URM…in fact, it’s an ORM
With that being said, decent chance.</p>

<p>not really…it depends on their ethnicity and background. Make sure that you include that you are this type of ethnicity to be considered URM. …I don’t know if ppl from bangladesh are minorities but you might want to ask admission…
Those gpas are low…w I mean only. Your uw is fine. I’m no admissions but from past responses and reads of asians, Vandy likes having asians b/c it is a minority in their school. There are way more non-asians than there are asians, so I consider that it is a really good advantage that you apply ed to vandy. :)</p>
