<p>For the moment, your scores are on the weak side for Columbia, Harvard, and Tufts. See if you can get them up in Nov. UVM should be a safety, Brandeis a match.</p>

3

<p>3.7 = Rank #15! Wow. You must go to a competitive school.</p>

4

<p>along with your SAT retake, i would recommend retaking bio as well seeing as your application places a strong emphasis on that field.</p>

5

<p>Gender, ethnicity, and competitiveness of high school (public or private)?</p>
