<p>You have similar stats to me except that I am a black female. I think that you have a good chance because you have amazing extracurriculars.</p>

3

<p>You have a shot at being offered admission to the College of General Studies. It’s unfortunate but getting into the College of Arts and Sciences might be a reach based on the numbers game alone.</p>

4

<p>I would say CGS also, you have really good extracurriculars but your scores are a little bit low…</p>

5

<p>thanks for all the input! I understand my scores are low. i’d go with umass (accepted EA) over cgs for sure.</p>

6

<p>hey! i have nearly the same scores except much more ec’s but i think you have a pretty decent shot at getting in. good luck and let me know how it goes for you!</p>
