<p>I need some feedback on where I stand as of now. I am gathering as much information as I can because I am pretty much on my own since my parents don't really know a whole lot about the admissions process. This forum is extremly helpful and I am glad that there are people willing to help. </p>

<p>I will raise my SAT scores as much as I can. And I understand that my activities arent amazing, I will work on that in the coming year.</p>

<p>You're in at UVA - Hispanic and in-state. I know URMs that got in with SAT scores way lower than 1900, way lower GPAs, and a course load not anywhere near as intensive as an IB candidates.</p>
