Hi Luke.C.sar! I would say you have a fairly high chance of getting in. I would be surprised if you were waitlisted or denied. I had the same math SAT and around the same GPA and got in early action last year. Your extra-curriculars are also very impressive and leadership as well. Good Luck and don’t stress too much!

SAT isn’t good, but instate with very good UW GPA and a lot of APs. Accepted for sure, but I don’t understand the GPA/SAT discrepancy…
