<p>which school in NY do you attend?</p>

4

<p>Its probably a reach out of state, any competitive public school has to be considered a reach for out of staters, ie: UCB, UCLA, UCSD, UMich, UTex, UI-UC, UWisc, UGA, etc.</p>

<p>No offense, but no, your SATs won't improve enough, most people take them again and do about the same w/o intense practice, it IS an IQ test, just one that you can figure out easily.</p>

<p>did u like look at the rest of my application, or r u just basing this on the SAT</p>

<p>im no longer applying to Mich. but i just dont think you even looked at my application before you made that judgement.</p>

<p>No I did, but Michigan is all formulaic, they just recently started even caring about essays and ECs. Its still a numbers game for them.</p>
