<p>I'm applying to just W&m, UVA, VTech, and JMU. I'm kinda worried about my SAT 2s , the dean from UVA's forum said to send all of them but I'm not sure. Since my SAT improved, do you guys have any reach school suggestions? They'd have to be worth going to over UVA with instate tuition though as I'm probably not eligible for FA. Pomona seems really appealing but even if I got in, I don't know if it would be worth it.
Thanks!</p>
