<p>Are you getting an idea as to how stupid this looks. Invest the time in raising your scores, and working on your essays.</p>

<p>Sybbie, to be fair it appears that your list of 6 threads is actually a list of 4 (including this one). So OP has posted the same question about chances in 4 different places? I've seen much worse on the board.</p>

<p>I also find it annoying that the OP keeps asking the same questions over and over. He also could be doing lots more research on his own. There's plenty of easily accessible info on-line (including by using College Confidential's search function) and in guidebooks that provides information about who's accepted to those colleges and what the college's aid options are.</p>

<p>A 1900 SAT is not impressive for most of the colleges that he lists. What he's aiming for isn't important when it comes to scores. What scores he has received is important.</p>

<p>Meanwhile, he has gotten a lot of solid advice from both parents and students. Time to give the chances posts a rest and it's time for him to follow the good advice that he's already gotten including the advice from Sybbie.</p>

<p>Stop starting soo many threads and actually spend lots of time working on your SATs. Simply increasing your SAT will increase your chance.</p>

<p>Stop bumming and do something!</p>
