<p>that being said, i have two questions:
1. Should I report all of my test scores, or should I just report the ACT and leave out all the SAT scores as well as the AP results?
2. What are my chances? What probability do you think I might have of getting any academic scholarships (I won't qualify for need-based aid)?</p>

<p>Terrible. You have absolutely no chance in getting into any college. Consider Southwest Tennessee Community COllege as a stretch school.</p>

<p>Actually I think you look quite borderline, probably a reject. Your SATs are on the low side. The Olin median SAT was over 1500 this year. Submit the ACT, forget the SAT. Your other problem is the lack of leadership posts - this is especially important for business admits. Good luck though. Those AP 3s look a touch weak - you don't have to submit APs. On the other hand if you don't submit them they may assume something worse if your transcript carries AP course titles.</p>
