Most of the successful ACTs in EA seemed to be at least 34. You may have to hope that Villanova was a safety for a lot of these studs, and they are on their way to ND, Georgetown or BC. As I said in another thread, if you are white, non-athlete and non arts talent, they really place more emphasis on tests than they care to admit.

Are you applying to Gabelli? My daughter was also deferred at VSB, but got into Gabelli. She prefers VSB, but I do not think the end result for comparable students at both schools will be much different.
