<p>Those test scores are ruining your perfectly good app. They aren't bad, just not good enough for most of the schools you listed. I would retake either the SAT or ACT if possible, and add a couple of safeties.</p>
<p>How many people are in your grade? Also I somewhat disagree with sak09 in terms of matches and reaches. The reason is that I feel like your test scores would bring you down. The schools that you want to attend all have big applicant pools that are self selecting, which means that almost everyone that applies have high stats. Your GPA is high, which is a good thing, so good luck. I hope that isn't your whole college list though, I think you should look at more safeties.</p>
<p>Thanks so much! There are about 50 girls in my class and I'm somewhere between #5-7...we don't rank so it's hard to tell. No, this isn't my whole college list...I didn't add all of my safties. I figured I'd ask your opinions on my more selective schools. My biggest problem is that because of my big graduation dance performance, I no longer have time to retake the SAT or ACT. I forgot to add my summer activities, but with those and dance and of course college stuff, there just isnt time to take the tests over again. If I did find time to retake 1 standardized test by some miracle, which one do you suggest I retake. I'll add that I got a 32 on Math and Writing, a 26 on Science, and a 25 on Reading the last time I took the test (in June).</p>
<p>are you applying to any of the business programs? If so, your chances go down since the business programs for some of those colleges are really competitive. if not, i think you could probably get into all of the colleges that you listed (the only one i'm not sure on is UPenn...your ACT is a little lower than their average, but your activities and grades make up for it). good luck!</p>
<p>Nope..I'm thinking about doing a Spanish major or possible a South Asian Studies/Spanish double major (at the schools with South Asian Studies programs) and then pursuing a career in medicine..i forgot to add that!</p>
