<p>Disclaimer:
I can chance you back if you want but i'm new to the whole college confidential thing and idk how accurate my opinion can be but i'll give it a try anyways if you want :)</p>
<p>Definitely retake the SAT… you need a high score if you want a chance at upenn, uchicago, brown, USC, and Cornell. I’m not that informed about the other ones, so I couldn’t give you an opinion on them.</p>
<p>Retake the ACT, I presume that youll get higher in it. UPenn and Brown are extremely hard. Think about applying EA to a few of the schools, like Brown and Emory. I am pretty sure that if your essays are done well, youll get into UF ( my friend went there and he had similar stats) </p>
<p>Retake the SAT (and aim high since you’re ED’ing at an Ivy)! Decent leadership, GPA and community involvement, imo. Which sort of programs are you going for? Try to orient your ECs towards that and it might help.
Good luck from a fellow South Asian!</p>
<p>Unfortunately, without a higher SAT, you’re screwed for your Ivies plus Chicago and Virginia. Good course rigor, good volunteering. You seem to be lacking in awards, but at this point, there’s not much you can do. USC and Emory are low reaches, UF is a high match, not sure on Vassar and Pomona. Best of luck!</p>
