<p>Thanks Redroses, I’ll look into those schools.</p>
<p>I understand that Columbia is a big risk, but doesn’t my ec’s and awards show that I am still smart lol? I feel like the answer is no, but hey, I am 600 points above the SAT average and 9 points higher than the ACT average in my school. Does that make a difference? A student in my school got in with higher stats (700 on two sat IIs and a 31 ACT) but with not as much ECs and awards. I’m retaking my subject tests and my ACT so hopefully they will increase. </p>
<p>And to mom2collegekids: sorry but what is EFC?</p>
