There is no point in retaking a 2230 or a 33…

JHU: Reach
Yale: Reach
Rice: Reach
Cornell: Reach
Berkeley: Match/High match

Wait, could you explain the difference between reach and match/high match?

I’m retaking the SAT to try and crack 2300 and ACT for around a 35.

You may not be able to get admitted to yale and cornell because your gpa may be slightly less than the average there. You have a pretty good shot at Berkeley, Rice, and JHU. Honestly, if you can improve your ACT by 1 point, that’ll put you around the 75th percentile at cornell and yale so I wouldnt be worried

Yale- High Reach
JHU- Reach
Cornell- Reach
Rice- High match
UC Berkeley- match

If you want to, I suppose you could retake. However, it is a holistic approach, and if you’re confident in you’re writing abilities and ECs you should be fine. That being said, your ECs are pretty decent. Quality over quantity I suppose. Just make sure that your interests radiates throughout your application.

@teddiecruz 2230 and 2300 barely has any difference. They don’t care as long as you prove you are capable, which you already have. Save your money for something else.

Johns Hopkins: High match/low reach
Ivy: reaches
Berkeley: low reach/high match
Rice: Low reach/high match

My friend got into Yale this year with a 33 on the ACT. People well over the 2300s got denied to Yale, UChicago and all the ivies. Those few points do not make much of a difference. Get a higher SAT II score instead
