<p>GMU: Match/high match</p>

<p>I believe high GPA/low SAT/ACT is a red flag when it comes to homeschooling; you would have been better off applying to a test-optional college.</p>

<p>I applied to other schools but GMU is my first choice. You said match/high match. Does that mean you think I’ll be accepted? And will my activities help?</p>

<p>It means you have around a 30-40 percent chance of being accepted. The low SAT/ACT combined with being homeschooled puts you in a bad situation.</p>
