<p>It’s definitely a reach. But, it is reachable. 1780-1800 won’t change much. Aim for 1900+.</p>

<p>Thanks for your feedback. Do you know if the fact that they requested me to apply and constantly send me mail affects anything?</p>

4

<p>Did you ever try the ACT?</p>

5

<p>I think you have a good chance! I’m just trying to think of another option?</p>

<p>No I’m mediocre at science so I didn’t want to take the ACT. I’m also applying to The Ohio State University where my sister is graduating from this year so I’m certain I’ll be accepted if Miami doesn’t work out</p>

<p>Your GPA is ok but SAT is not. You may still have a shot being a URM. Last year a few were accepted with a 26 ACT and were even given scholarship money. Diversity at the U is much greater than at Miami University so I wish things work out for you.</p>
