<p>If your weighted GPA is 3.9, after having taken 5 APs, I’m assuming that your UW GPA is around 3.6. Correct me if I’m wrong. Anyway,</p>

<p>Wisconsin Madison - Low Reach
Minnesota Twin Cities - High match
Brown - No chance
University of South Carolina (main campus) - Low match
Duke - No chance
USC - Reach
Butler - Match
University of Washington - Match
University of Richmond - Match, maybe high match, don’t know much about it
Siena - Safety</p>

<p>My advice: standardized tests - I know it can be hard but pull something higher on the ACT, or possibly SAT. demonstrating knowledge in a subject with the SAT II can always help. About brown… I know someone who got in with 1800s SAT although she was international. However, its imperative that you get those scores up.</p>
