<p>What's your class rank? A 3.1 really probably puts you out of reach of Brandeis, unless your school is just THAT competitive. Also, you'd need to bring your SAT up at least 350-400 points (which can be done- I brought mine up 300 points- but it's hard). </p>

<p>But no, being Muslim would no factor into the decision at all, so no need to worry about that. There are plenty of Muslims and Pakistanis here.</p>

<p>It's a reach. Your GPA is really low. You need a killer essay, interview, teacher recs, and to bring your test scores up.</p>

<p>Good luck</p>

<p>Very, very much a reach.
Your class rank, GPA and SAT scores are well below the typical Brandeis student's.</p>

<p>That being said, have a great interview, write a great essay and really, really try and make your case <em>might</em> give you a shot.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
