<p>bumpppppppppppppppppppppp</p>

<p>pleaseeeeeeeee ? anyoneeeeeeeee</p>

<p>Have you listed everything? No APs, no SAT IIs?</p>

<p>I’ll be honest, your chances aren’t looking good, especially with your current SAT I score.</p>

5

<p>hm, my school doesnt offer AP classes, because all of them are really rigorous and stuff.
hmm, havent taken sat IIs yet… hmm :/</p>

<p>aaah, what if i make my college essay really nice? haha
im desperate</p>

<p>I like the EC’s but with those SAT scores, you are looking too high in your college search. Most of those schools are MAJOR reaches</p>

<p>You can self-study for the AP exam (or find a tutor) and take it at another school that does offer the exam.</p>

<p>College essays show universities whether or not you are a personality fit for the university. However, they need to gauge your academic fit, and they do so through SATs, APs, etc.</p>

<p>oh really ?
hm, what if i raise my sat score to 2100 ?
is that possible?
when i took it for the first time, i didnt really study for it,
i didnt memorize any sat words,
and im currently studying them…
will that make a big difference or just a little difference?
and as for the APs, i dont think any brazillian school offers AP, so i think theyll understandd…
dont they go easier when admitting international students ?
and thank you so much for your help (:</p>
