<p>I think you should be good at all them except GW would be a reach.</p>

3

<p>Thanks, anyone else? If you think I could change something, don't be hesitant to talk.</p>

4

<p>any chance you can improve your SATs?</p>

5

<p>I wasn't planning on taking them again, so that is why I am going to try the ACT. I did not send my SAT score to colleges but my ACT score will be sent.</p>

<p>Also, can you suggest some schools with good chemistry and/or pre-med programs that may be withing my reach. Thanks</p>

<p>I think you're good because if University Park doesn't offer admission, you'll have another campus that offers you admission that you can afford. When checking a college list, just make sure that you have a safety that you can afford. A seat at a school next year. Everything else should be applying where you want to apply.</p>
