<p>~400 hours of community service</p>

<p>Out-Of-State to all these schools</p>

<p>I know that my schools are reaches but I thought that because I am a minority that would help me with my low SAT II scores. I hope that I score around 1350 this time around on SAT I. Also I thought that since I have a lot of leadership and community service experience will help me. </p>

<p>*** Please don't be too harsh!</p>

<p>I think you have a shot at Virginia. Just skimming through your record, you have good enough credentials to get in. I'm a first-year minority at UVA and I had similar SAT and AP scores.</p>
