<p>I'd say decent chances at UMiami and UFlorida with reaches at Cornell, UMich, and NYU. i don't think you have much of a chance at the others (although you never know-still apply). your race will certainly help you, but your GPA is low for them.</p>

5

<p>thanks for replying.........is my GPA the only problem???</p>

6

<p>since youre in state, youre pretty much in UF...im also applying there!</p>

<p>your GPA and SAT scores arent that high for the ivies(much like me)...so you need to work hard and get good SATII's and exc. reccs and essays to make up for it...theyre still really big reaches though...</p>

<p>i think youre good for UM also, since youre in state...</p>

<p>ps. what county/school are you from? im also in mu alpha theta</p>
