<p>I am not an admissions counselor, so my opinion is really subjective and based on my child’s experience. My child applied to some of the schools you are interested in. Her stats were similar, but she did have a substantially higher reading score on her SAT and some very impressive ecs. She got waitlisted at JHU, and GW but accepted at U of Chicago and the honors program at the State University. So who knows. You really can’t count on a definite admission to any of the schools you mention. They are all possibilities. Pick the one that interests you most and shower them with attention. Apply EA to that school. I believe it can really improve your chances.</p>

<p>to add more data from my HS’s previous applicants to these schools</p>

<p>UPenn has an overall 17% Acceptance
JHU has an overall 31% Acceptance
GWU has an overall 51% Acceptance</p>

<p>GWU match
Cornell, JHU and Penn reaches
BU low match</p>

26

<p>GWU-match
UPenn-high reach
JHU-reach</p>

<p>Your GPA is low for UPenn and JHU. If you could get you CR core up 50-100 pts and approx 50 pts combined on the other two, you’d have a much better chance. You should try taking the ACT if you haven’t. Some people do much better on that and you may be one of those people. Good Luck!!</p>

<p>heres the thing, theres only only 3 SAT days left in the school year, and i need to take 3 SAT II’s on two of those days, (Math1/World in May, Bio in June since March date doesnt offer SAT II’s), and then i have to cram in the AP World Test in May as well. So, the only real day to take the SAT again would be the March date, so i would have to really cram my SAT prep again (i took a Princeton Review prep course, still have both the books given).</p>

<p>How much better does your “Superscore” look compared to your single score?</p>

28

<p>Not that well…Just take it for at least a 2200+…I would not rely on your superscore.</p>
