Chances of getting into Umass Amherst?

<p>I have a 3.78 gpa and a 1500 sat score. I'm in National Honor Society, and I have great extra curricular activities.</p>

<p>I volunteer a lot at my church, and I get involved in volunteer activities through my school. Also, I live in MA, if that helps at all. </p>

<p>Please help I really want to know if Umass is worth applying to!</p>

<p>Your gpa seems good. You may want to try and retake the SATs. The average critical reading score is between 530-630. The math average is between 560-650. Being a Massachusetts resident helps. If you can get your SAT scores up a bit I think you’d have an even better chance.
Try applying you never know!</p>

<p>Everything is good, except you SAT score; aim for the 1700s. Have you tried taking the ACT’s? You might do better.</p>

<p>Yea I may take the ACT’s. My sat score doesn’t reflect my GPA at all, so I’m hoping colleges will look past it.</p>

<p>A TON of kids apply to Umass Amherst, so if you want to be competitive, raise that score. You have a good chance at Dartmouth though.</p>
