<p>I'm taking the SAT for the first time march 8th, and I have high hopes because my PSAT score was 181. The ACT will come sometime soon as well.
What do I need to improve in?</p>

<p>Bump</p>

<p>I live in Texas now but went to UMinn as a freshman. Upper 20s on ACT should be enough. Hope you can handle really cold weather. Go visit in Jan or Feb.</p>

<p>Is it nice there in the summer?</p>

<p>You’ll be fine. I got in with way less of a weighted GPA but more EC’s. But I’m pretty sure they care more about umbers than anything else. Upper 20’s on ACT or around 1800 or 1900 on SAT and your set.<br>

<p>Okay thanks!</p>

<p>Also your race and being a first generation college student will help.</p>
