<p>hmm your SATs are a little low, is it probably too late to retake them?</p>

<p>nice gpa though and you have a good courseload for a senior. it would appear that your weak points are the SATs, the 2 in AP Calc, and a lack of solid extracurricular activities, as i have been told that colleges look for depth, not breadth. are you officers in any of these clubs? (i assumed your not because you didn't say) Your prospective college list is very similar to mine, i have five schools from your list. i have better test scores and EC's, but you have a far better GPA. I don't know answers to the questions i asked, but just based on this, i would say:</p>

<p>Rejected from Duke
In at university of maryland - baltimore, idk about college park
uva, tech and virginia state are matches
georgetown and w&m are reaches</p>

<p>The one thing that will hinder you is your SAT scores. However I think you're in at VT, UMaryland, Fordham and Penn State. Probably Elon too. I don't know much about Virginia State, and I think the rest are probably reaches.</p>
