<p>Your verbal score is WAY low. Hopefully it will be >700 in October. Other then that you look like everybody else, so you have a chance (12-24%, depending on the school).</p>

3

<p>If you get 1500+ in SAT, that will give you good chance at the lower ivies (CPD)</p>

4

<p>I actually think you have a great shot at all your colleges. it will all come down to the recs and essays.</p>

5

<p>Yeah I am hoping to write good essays, especially about my eagle project and boy scouts, and I have really good teachers for rec. Hopefully I pull off a 700 on verbal for this SAT, do you think that will make a big difference?</p>

6

<p>600 verbal and 700 verbal? Not <em>that</em> big, but something really, really good to have.</p>

<p>Sorry to call Dartmouth "lower", but if I had to classify then I would call CP+D lower :-(</p>
