<p>To be honest, I’d be really surprised if you didn’t get in because your SATs and ECs are excellent. By the way, have you taken any SAT subject tests? I thought that Wesleyan required them but I could be wrong.</p>

<p>Considering you posted in the Brown and Williams forums as well, I’m assuming you are applying to Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut, not the all-female Wesleyan College in Georgia. This is the Wesleyan College (GA) forums, not Wesleyan (CT).
