<p>Definitely plan on retaking the SAT. :P Then throw in some SAT IIs, maybe an ACT (that worked for me), some good scores on AP tests, and that should take care of the testing sector.</p>

<p>Keep up the grades and the clubs; you're doing good work with those so far. Plus the fact that you live in-state for all but NYU should help your chances.</p>

<p>When you do apply, apply to as many schools as you can fit in your budget. Just remember, there's no such thing as aiming too high.</p>

<p>Flopsy knows the UC schools. Yes, you're aiming too high. Look up the school's 25%-75% scores and make sure you have some where you are at their 75%.</p>
