<p>Basically, my SATs are my weakest point. I am retaking it, but my CR prob will only inc. to a 650. The math might go up to an 800 based on luck. My writing should be a 750. So, I could get it up to a 2200, but most likely it'll be around a 2150ish. So, for those of you nice enough to chance me, chance both with a 2060 and then a 2150ish. THANKS!!!</p>

<p>Those schools are all reaches for anyone and high reaches for you. No problem that you apply to them as such, but you need a school that you can like that fits your needs that is very likely to take you. The good old safety. Perhaps applying to UMD early in the cycle will take care of that. IT is very possible that you do not get into any of those schools you have listed.</p>

<p>I have safeties, I just didn't list them because I'm sure of my chances. And UMD doesn't have early, it is priority if you get in your application by a certain date in December.</p>
