<p>Are you applying ED or RD?</p>

<p>I really don't think your chances are that low. You have great chances. Your gpa(s) are great, especially given your course load. Your test scores will hurt you, but you also have great ec's. You would have probably been in ED for sure but even rd you stand a great chance.</p>

<p>Good Luck!</p>

<p>I am applying RD. I feel decent about my chances, I'm just worried about my test scores. It seems that is my downfall with all the schools I am applying too.</p>
