chances at william and mary

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I visited both UVA and William and Mary and both look amazing in their own way. But since UVA ended EA im having a tough time figuring out if I should apply early to William and Mary next year to improve my chances. I am a male in-state Asian. I go to a public school that is ranked in the top 50 in the nation. This may be also why my gpa is kind of low.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.71 out of a 4.0 scale
SATS: 1280?pretty miserable but I should improve next second time
No class ranks
ACT: I plan on taking the ACT?s (good idea?)
APs : im taking 4 APs this year (stat, calc, us history, lang. and comp) and 4 next year as a senior, and should probably pass all the AP tests</p>

<p>Extra curricular:
4 years football, 3 years varsity, lettered
Coach of youth soccer team
Started a math tutoring club in soph. year
NHS, Junior Civitan 2 years, Key Club 3 years, Indian Club 4 years
Relay for life team captain
Model UN, have won awards</p>

<p>Any feedback would be helpful.</p>

<p>If you can fit the ACT into your schedule, you should take it. You don't have to send in your scores if you do poorly, so as long as you can budget time for whatever studying you might want to do, there really is no harm in trying it out. Keep in mind though that many take it to assuage the math score (factors less into overall score in the ACT, and because you're taking both AP Calc and Stat this year, the weight of math in the SAT might be more beneficial). Good luck.</p>

<p>yeah ill probably take the ACT's and see how i do on them, becuase i found out you dont have to send them in...
about the math thing...my math score on the SAT (670) was alot lower then i thought i could get...it seems like there were a bunch of tricky questions i didnt pay close enough attention to</p>
