<p>Try to take the ACT - it may give you a higher score - write a great essay, with stellar recommendations, showing Mbury as your #1 choice…you are a fine candidate.</p>

<p>Like the person before me suggested, I think that you should consider retaking some of the standardized tests. If you’re really opposed to the SAT (which is entirely understandable; I am, too), try the ACT. I hear from a lot of people that it’s much easier than the SAT. Anyways, that’s the only thing that would likely hold you back.</p>

<p>How do you think your essays will be? That’s the best place to stand out to the admissions committee - if you bring out your personality, all of your other achievements will seem more real.</p>

<p>I am also in LOVE with Middlebury! Would you mind chancing me as well? Maybe we’ll see each other there next year!</p>
