<p>Hello,
I'm a Caucasian male in NY,
If one had lowish SAT(2100) and ACT(32), but really good extracurricular, 4.0 GPA in all AP at a competitive school, several leadership positions and great AP and SAT II scores, what would there chances be to get into IVYs and top LACs?</p>

<p>That is one applicant. That does not say much at all. </p>

<p>SAT is weak you want to retake it and au for a solid 2250+ or a 34+ act.</p>

<p>What is your class rank or estimated percentile?</p>

<p>School doesn’t do class rank, but probably one.</p>

<p>take both again, especially if your subject test scores were in the 750+ range. It cant hurt to do so. With your current scores you will have a lot harder time being considered at a top school, as subject tests scores are not as heavily weighted as the SAT score.</p>
