<p>Blah.</p>

<p>u seem to have a pretty decent chance....</p>

<p>ur bio SAT II is a tad low ....u want to generally break 700 on ur SAT IIs since you get to choose them.</p>

<p>Dont worry about your ECs, as long as you show leadership and a desire to do something other than just study for classes u should be fine. Dont worry about those overachievers who were conditioned by their parents since they were born to get into an Ivy League college.</p>

<p>and i'm guessing you mean RD not ED since decisions should'v been mailed in december.</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>I was wondering if I should retake the Bio.. But since they'll see my lower score, and it's likely that I won't score higher, since I haven't taken Bio for a year.. I doubt I will.</p>

<p>its funny that i just answered this in another post...yes they will see your lower score....its not worth it if you dont think u can do significantly better.</p>
