<p>What are my chances if i apply ed</p>

<p>Anyone???</p>

<p>Like me, you have a low standardized test score. I didn’t take the ACT but 28 is on the rather low end for most JHU applicants. Your ECs are OK, but not good enough to give you distinction and compete with other applicants.Then again you do have a letter of rec for a JHU grad but I’m not sure how much that would help you. It will be tough, but doable.</p>

<p>Edit: I know a friend of mine who’s older brother got into JHU early. TO my knowledge his biggest achievement was being captain of the tennis team but also showing lots of interest for JHU. He did have higher testing than you but GPA-wise you were on par with him. I think you have a decent chance actually, since you’re retaking the ACT. IF you can bring your score up to over 30 or 32+, you are looking pretty good</p>

<p>@mrwiggles Ya my goal is to get my ACT over a 30. Thanks for chancing me</p>
