<p>I’m going to keep this short to emphasize the point (and to be honest)
SAT SAT SAT- they must come up to give you any shot at those schools, as of right now they are around 350 points on a <em>two</em> subject scale from being competitive</p>

<p>chance me back?</p>

<p>You should really try to drastically improve your SAT score. Without atleast a 200 pt jump I don’t suggest you apply to those schools.</p>

4

<p>SAT score will hold you down, and your EC’s/achievements arent that great unless you plan on being some type of music major. I would say that all your colleges are high reaches.</p>

<p>Might want to look at some realistic schools.
Best of luck.</p>
