Need Urgent Help

<p>Hello I have a few questions I would like help on.</p>

<p>My GPA is 88/100 - I have taken about 10 honors classes and 1 AP my senior year ( This year )
SAT- Math-530 CR-590 Wr-550
Scheduled to take SATII - Math level 2 and U.S. History.</p>

<p>I am retaking my SAT and expect to get around a 1300.....have taken practice tests and gotten around this score after getting a tutor. I could possibly do better.</p>

<p>I play varsity basketball and lacrosse.
I will not need to apply for financial aid at any school I apply to.</p>

<p>I am white/male.</p>

<p>I live in syracuse, NY, but am looking to go to college in Florida or California but it doesn't have to be in Fl. or Cali.</p>

<p>Here is a list of colleges I am thinking about applying to - NYU, UMiami, USC(cali), university california san diego, UC santa barbra, San Diego State University, Pepperdine, UCLA, Berkeley, University of Florida</p>

<p>I also am getting recruited for Basketball around NY and the SUNY Geneseo coach told me I could get in there if I wanted to play there.</p>

<p>I know some of these schools are probably out of my reach but what I want to do is apply to a decent amount of schools and hope to get into a couple.</p>

<p>Questions:</p>

<p>1) Can anyone give me any other colleges I should consider?
2) What are my chances at some of these schools I listed?
3) How many community service hours should I stride for to help myself?
4) What SAT score would I need to have any chance at usc, berkeley, ucla?
5) Does out of state help me or hurt me?
6) Does not applying for financial aid help?</p>

<p>THANK YOU!</p>
