<p>i'm currently a junior in high school with a gpa of 3.5 (non-weighted) about 3.7(weighted)
i plan to take sum AP's next yr to boost it up maybe to 3.8 nonweighted and like 4.1-4.2 (weighted)
i've done about 55 hrs of volunteering
took my SATs got 550 in reading 490 in math and 510 (def plan to take it again)
i live in Los Angeles
I am of Salvadorean descent
no one in my family has gone to university
my financial situation is not very good
i played soccer for 2 yrs
and im in the spanish club at school
Please I would like somebody to let me know what my chances are and what kind of improvements I should make to increase my chances
i plan on studying either business administration or sociology and then get into a good law school</p>
<p>gotta get that SAT up…have you tried the ACT? </p>
<p>otherwise you are good to go…Whitman (business) will be harder but Arts and Sci (sociology) should be fine if you can get that math grade up…about 60-100 points on the math…</p>
<p>geography in your favor as well as URM; if you apply ED you will have a great advantage…are you applying for FA?</p>
<p>no i haven’t tried the ACT
and yea i plan on taking the SAT again in May
yea i really will need FA lol</p>
<p>trying the AP exams is a good way to go. and the SAT scores could be improved, and maybe you can get the math scores up more easily.my verbal and writing scores are almost the same with yours, but my maths is higher.</p>
<p>wish that helps.</p>
<p>did you get in?</p>
