Low scores? What I would do to have those scores…

What is your local college? What state are you in? You should probably have some safeties even though your stats are so good…

I live in Michigan. My local college is GVSU. :slight_smile: I’ve been reading too many chance threads and my scores just seems bad, i don’t know shrug

I have a 1250/1600 SAT (retaking in Oct) and a 3.886 GPA, and GVSU is one of my safeties… pretty sure UMich wouldn’t be that much of a reach for you. State would also be a safety for you (it’s a match for me, I just applied today). I would kill for that SAT score, smh.
