You have a strong record so your schools seem well within your reach. your ACTs are a lot higher than your SATs. I’df advise you to make sure you have safeties that you are willing to attend though. Can’t recall but think Johns Hopkins asks for at least 2 SAT 2s. Can’t recall if taking the ACTs can substitute.

@lostaccount yeah, I have stony and Bing as my safeties. Do you think I’m being foolish in putting those as my safeties? And nah they don’t require subject tests but I might take chem and math 2 this December

@cappex I feel like BU is more target and Sophie Davis and Macaulay honors being safeties?? I don’t know about that I know Sophie is SUPER competitive

I simply think you should not have any schools on you list you would not be happy attending. So, hopefully you have visited the safeties and are ok with them. Pretend it is May and you are headed to one of them. Are you ok about that?
