<p>Essay and Counselor/Teacher recs: very good, essay talks about my growth as a basketball player my first year on varsity. counselor told me that i didnt need to revise it at all.</p>

<p>will my increase in GPA help me for Nova? I sent mid-year transcripts to Nova and Vanderbilt. Thanks</p>

<p>bumppppppppppppp</p>

<p>Please? Haha.</p>

<p>Vanderbilt- Very hard to get in due to all of the competitive applications. You have the ACT score but the GPA might hurt you. I would say it’s going to be a little bit of a reach, but that’s just my opinion. Good luck!!!</p>

<p>thanks, that’s sort of what i thought haha. vanderbilt and northwestern are my reach schools. what about my chances for villanova?</p>

<p>bumpppppppppppp</p>
