I would definitely take atleast 2 SAT II’s if your applying to selective colleges. Other than that, you chances look pretty good.

You have a decent shot. If you’re a legacy that helps even more

Northwestern LOVES applicants who show their commitment through Early Decision. I’m applying ED too!

what is “some” legacy? Having legacy is like being pregnant. You’re either pregnant or you’re not. You either have legacy or you don’t.

NU is a reach school but worth a try for you.
