<p>Your SAT is in the lower range for UMD, so if you retake it and get it up, that’d be really good. As of now, I’d say UMD is a low reach and Rutgers is a low match.</p>
<p>I agree with everyone else, Rutgers is a match but UMD is a low reach because of your SAT. Though, your GPA is not doing you any favors it isn’t hurting you. Your ECs are good and may help you out at UMD.
All in all you should get into Rutgers and quite possibly UMD if you can get your SAT up a bit.
Good Luck!</p>
<p>Retake your SAT. You’ll do yourself a huge favor if you can break the 2000 mark. If you can do that you’re a match for UMD and a safety for Rutgers. If you don’t, Maryland’s a low reach. Good luck!</p>
