<p>Not gonna lie, the GPA and SATs I think are a smidge lower than the 2009 acceptance average, but the extracurricular and rigor of classes is pretty impressive. Your GPA will probably increase with the APs (at least the weighted) and if you decide to take the SATs again, a little better on the reading section would go a long way.</p>

<p>I’m not really sure how much they look at things besides GPA/SATs, but in my completely unprofessional opinion, you stand a decent chance; if not a good one assuming all goes well.</p>

<p>Yeah I agree the SATs may be a little lower than average since when i applied out of HS in 2008 my SATs were about the same as urs and I was rejected…so then I had to work hard the next 2 yrs to get accepted as a school-to-school transfer</p>

<p>You’ll be waitlisted at best. Your critical reading SAT score is low. And there’s nothing outstanding that will make admissions look over that. I was accepted and I had a combined score of 2250. My friend had a higher GPA and class rank than me, but had a SAT score like yours and was waitlisted.</p>
