<p>We need SAT scores and GPA.</p>

4

<p>whoa... u applied to a bazillion gazillion colleges</p>

5

<p>SAT: 1910</p>

<p>GPA:3.3</p>

<p>Not the best...I'm kind of embarassed actually. Compared to other people.</p>

<p>wow... cry sheesh... they're fine.
I briefly skimmed your list, and looks like you'll get into most of them.
You'll have trouble at UMich and UCSF... but it still depends on where you live, ur E.C.s and other junk.</p>

7

<p>Well are they good schools?</p>

<p>I live in WA.</p>

<p>I still need to cut some and need a lot of help in that department.</p>

8

<p>Trust me, that's above average (around 1520) - don't be blinded by CC, it's not representative of the "real world." Assuming your M+V = ~1270, I'd say you have a pretty good shot at all those schools! I'm not really sure why you're applying to so many publics though, because OOS it's hard to get good financial aid and the costs are usually more than they're worth. I'm guessing you live in Washington - if so, UWashington is a fantastic school and Seattle rocks.</p>

<p>Wow thank you so much. What colleges can I cut? I applied to publics in WA because of the in-state tuition. Although out of state dominates my list! I'm in a heap of trouble.</p>

10

<p>Also - if you get into UWashington, I'd say only bother considering:
UC-San Diego
Univ of Michigan
Virginia Tech
Univ of Colorado</p>

<p>UWashington is IMO better than the rest of the schools on your list.</p>

11

<p>Should I get rid of the ".......State Universities"?</p>

12

<p>Feel free to IM me at HowdyDoo92</p>

13

<p>Thank you so much! I will definitely talk to you soon!</p>

14

<p>I would say eliminate, without knowing anything about you, your interests, or major:</p>

<p>Arizona State University
Oregon State University</p>

<p>Western Washington University pick one of these as safety
Eastern Washington University pick one of these as safety
Central Washington University pick one of these as safety</p>

<p>Montana State University
Virginia Commonwealth University</p>

15

<p>^forget Central Washington - mid SAT is like 1000</p>

16

<p>vcu is a definite match</p>
