SAT I:
Math 530
Reading 500
Writing 560</p>

<p>The reason my grades are so low is because of deaths in the family/parent problems/previously having severe depression (diagnosed), which I wrote about in my essay.</p>

<p>List (in order of interest):</p>

<p>Ohio U.
Marshall
Ohio State
Bowling Green
Towson</p>

<p>Do I stand any chance at OSU? I know my SAT scores are near the bottom of the middle 50%, but would rising grades this semester and that essay help me out?</p>

<p>I'm sorry about the problems you've experienced. Bowling Green and Ohio University will probably accept you if you can get at least a 22 on the ACT. Ohio State has become really difficult. My son goes to one of the best high schools in the state and kids who aren't B+ or better are no longer getting accepted. Take the ACT and SAT ASAP. You may have to take them more than once to get a good score.</p>
