Please chance me! Also should I take the SAT again?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Colgate University
1

SAT: 550 Math, 660 Reading, 800 Writing
ACT: 28

My GPA is a 92 and my I have a solid three years of JV sports for three seasons each year, and work and have volunteered at a local animal shelter, but I don’t have any special leadership recognition save a couple Student Of The Month awards and National Spanish Exam awards.

I know my math is bad and I want to retake it but I was wondering if it is worth it to retake if on Colgate’s website it states that all testing must be completed by September.

I have already taken the SAT five times now and have gone through books and expensive tutoring and I am very stressed about my low math score. Also I am currently taking Physics and for first quarter my grade was an 80. I am very stressed and don’t know what to do.

Here are the other schools I’m applying to:
American
Bates
Bucknell
Carleton
Lehigh
Tufts

I am familiar with Bates, Bucknell and Tufts and they are all reaches for you. If that is the case with the other four schools, you need to find better matches.

ACT score is pretty low and extracurriculars are pretty weak too. 3 jv sports arent very impressive and no leadership doesnt help. I think you have a very good chance at american and lehigh

uh oh - no safety - unless American counts as one (I know the other schools well)
