<p>You can take the SAT in October and submit it for the November 1st UVA deadline. W&M is early decision only. Don’t do ED. Do EA at UVA and regular at W&M. Try taking the ACT with little/no prep in September to see how it goes. In case you do well, you get your score in 10 days or so and will have lots of time to get everything ready for the early app. I think you have a really good shot. I know students whose SATs were very poor (1700 for a couple minority students I know admitted), but their unweighted GPAs were very high, they got few Bs in high school and the rigor of their courses was very strong. </p>
<p>Take some SAT Subject Tests. UVA recommends them. </p>
