no guarantee but a good shot. I think with Pitt the earlier you apply, the better (rolling). Won’t get into honors I think with that SAT but that’s ok. any chance you want to take SAT one more time and see if you can bring it up? that’s really the main obstacle but I think your EC’s and other stuff will carry you anyway.
