Your stats are kind of on the low side. Assuming you are a junior and have not applied yet, you definitely need to retake your SAT to get at LEAST a 1450. If you can afford it, I would highly recommend taking an SAT prep course during the summer. I did that and it greatly raised my SAT scores. :slight_smile:

Your not a urm.Only African americans,native americans,latino,and Hispanic qualify a’s urm.Your a Orm.If you mean by region California doesn’t count much definitely not enough to help.Honestly your stats aren’t to impressive,there kids who are applying to prep highschools that have a more impressive app.How can you be first generation college applicant if your a legacy?I think your confused…either that or this is an example thread.
