<p>The weakest part seems to be your GPA, but the everything else makes up for it. I think you have a good chance of getting into most of these schools. Some of the more selective schools are going to be Reach Schools. Good luck though!</p>

<p>What Duh said, exactly. Extracurriculars really show dedication to things and schools like that. One of my friends got into Georgetown as a complete surprise, so you never know what you’ll get. Good luck… and thanks for replying to me :)</p>

<p>Good luck to you too :)</p>

<p>Thanks for chancing me OhRylie! Let’s start off with the bad news. You probably already know this, but your GPA is a tad bit low, which may impact your admissions to a reach school. Very solid SAT and SAT Subject Test scores, which should help you a lot! As for the colleges, I filled out the ones I feel you can make it. Keep up the good work!
