<p>What is your rank? Your GPA is low for top schools, but if your rank is very high it won’t be as big of a deal.</p>

Your SAT scores are extremely strong , however.
Your EC’s are average except for the captain position, which is good. </p>

<p>@Loncria: Can you please explain more about what you mean by impacted? Are you saying UCSD is only a high match if I am applying bio? Will I be likely to have a worse chance if I apply undecided?</p>

<p>Also, if I do apply bio, would it be wise to submit my bio SAT score? I realize that it’s low, but unfortunately I do not have time to restudy & retake it as I am focusing on other test scores… </p>

<p>Just off the top of your head, do you have any other good schools in mind not listed that would be better matches for my stats, since you listed almost all of them as reach? i’m thinking I should definitely take most of them off my list since so many of them have been classified as reach but I’m not sure what schools would be closer to my level. I’ve been looking into quite a few but they either seem way too below or way too above. </p>

<p>I’d really appreciate your help, thanks.</p>
