<p>What are my chances for:
Vanderbilt
Tulane
UVA
Duke</p>

<p>with my current ACT. What are my chances with a 30+?</p>

<p>As a fellow African American but in a slightly better school system, I would say that you have a very decent chance at all of those. Most of them are looking for hardworking students that don't have plentiful resources at their school.</p>

<p>Yeah I'd say with a 30+ (a 32 would get you in automatically imo) you have good chances.</p>

<p>probably in at all</p>
