<p>Sorry I dont know much about these east coast schools...however I think you could make a great impact with a strong essay. Maybe you could write about your passion for tennis, sports or maybe some obstacles you overcame. If you really got the admissions attention with a strong essay then I think you could get into most of your college choices.
Good Luck!
chance me back, please.

<p>hmm...</p>

<p>Ithaca: in
Denison: in, maybe safe
BU: high match
Syracuse: i'll say reach just because it's gotten so much tougher. you can get in, just have a good senior year.
UPitt: high match, you'll get in with a good essay
UWisc-Madison: you know what, i'm going to say in (i hope you get in because then i might get in) because i've seen people with 3.1's get in. but they had slightly better test scores. retake those if possible
Whitman: in?
Willamette: in</p>
