<p>I got have a low gpa unweighted (2.9) because I wasnt focused enough. I took a ton of honors classes, but only one AP this year (stats). I did fairly well on the sat 2000. I help out at my church a lot and I am active in the confirmation program. Im also 4 year varsity golf and captain since junior year. Im hispanic also if that makes any difference. Im from LA and I really want to go to a good school, but I know im a longshot even at a decent one. What should I do? Also im taking the sat again in october, but i dont think im going to do much better especially since I havnt been studying for it. </p>

<p>My dream schools are pepperdine, wake forest, and the University of Miami. </p>

<p>Other schools are Loyola Marymount University, Santa Clara, University of San Francisco, Marquette</p>

<p>To be honest I know I would be happy at any of these places. I have moved around a lot in my life and know how to adjust. Do you think its realistic I would be accepted at any of these? Should I even apply to college?</p>

<p>I think there’s a really high chance you’d be accepted. In additional Info, you might wanna explain gpa</p>

<p>really?! which schools? :)</p>

<p>I would look up which ones use affirmative action. Which sat ranges that you’re closest to and the percentage of Hispanics in each. Clearly you’re smart, involved, a URM and passionate about these schools. It doesn’t sound outlandish for you to be accepted to them. </p>

<p>Are you a national Hispanic scholar?</p>

<p>If you aren`t accepted, you can always do a couple of years of community college, then transfer.</p>

<p>Yes. Find a safety and apply.</p>
