<p>Lol, other than that, should be okay. Don’t worry and just see what happens. You’ll get in at least one.</p>

<p>I agree- don’t bother sending in your SAT. Your ACT score makes you a very competitive applicant at all of those schools. Your GPA and ECs are good, but I think having great essays and recommendations will help make up for any of the blemishes or weaker spots in your application that you feel you have. Of course, I am no admissions officer, but I am also sure that you will get into a few of those schools. Best of luck!</p>

<p>Haha I meant hours</p>
