<p>After looking at my weak ECs, I want to know how many of these are even within reason. If these are totally out of the picture for me, where would you recommend? Also, Should I re-take SAT or take the ACT? I intend to major in political science, with hopes of going into law or pursuing a PhD. I took no science 12th grade because it couldn't fit the schedule. Would it be a good idea to take a science SAT Subject to prove competency? I know it's a lot of questions, thanks guys!</p>
<p>Oh yeah, I'm not Catholic, but my family is (don't know if that matters). I've got no alum connections, my essay will be decent.</p>
