I’m looking at UMD too, as far as your GPA is concerned (clearly), it is good. The test scores definitely need to go up, from what I can tell, they are well below the average of the school. Your EC’s are decent, you should do a good amount of community service. For next year, I’d go with AP Calc over stats as stats isn’t seen as impressive as AP Calc by colleges. Aside from test scores, you appear to be a solid applicant. However, they need to drastically improve because where they are now almost certainly sets you very far back.
