<p>I think you are being too hard on yourself about your scores. Your unweighted GPA is lower than your SAT score. 1360 is a respectable score for all the schools you have listed here.</p>

<p>You have chosen all large schools. You might want to look at Emerson (small school) and Northeastern too.</p>
