<p>i would say with miami, nova, uga and maryland you have more than a reasonable chance to get in matter of fact if you didnt get in i would be surprised i got into miami having taken 42 units in a community college gpa was 3.85 i they accepted 40 of my units as for nyu i also applied there and i am waiting to here back but given all your info you have a good shot so long as you maintain your gpa near a 3.7 the only school that might be on the fence is georgetown but i wouldnt say you have no chance overall your looking good to get into most if not all the schools your looking into</p>
