<p>Adding up the C, Math, MathII, and verbal scores, I'm going to say it's a reach.</p>

<p>You're EC's are decent, but fail to show passion.</p>

<p>You never know though, good luck.</p>

<p>oh, but you know that stuff about passion. You can't tell if you are passionate or not just from a list of ecs... it all depends. You seem like a person who is involved in the activies that you do, so that's good. Your gpa is great, which will probably make up SATs. And there is nothing you can do about that c now so i wouldn't worry about it. Just write some kick butt essays and i think u'll be just fine. ;)</p>
