<p>Your senior year grades are largely irrelevant since acceptance decisions will be based mostly on grades 9-11. Schools are going to be accepting/rejecting long before the year is over and one semester of grades won’t help your GPA much.</p>

<p>How much will your parents spend each year? You have a LOT of out of state publics on your list and they will expect you to pay all/nearly all costs. Your SAT will prevent you from many merit scholarships.</p>

<p>If your parents won’t pay much, then take off all those OOS publics. If your parents will pay for you to go wherever you want, then include some schools that WILL accept you.</p>

<p>Your SAT isn’t going to trump your GPA at many schools. Schools are going to assume that you don’t do assignments and such.</p>

<p>What is your Math + CR score?
What state are you in?
What is your intended major?</p>
