I think the only area you need to work on is your sat scores. If you can get your total to 1300, I think you have a good chance. Instead of taking the sats in October, try taking a prep course first. They really do help. You can take the sats in January and be better prepared. Good luck!

Agreed ^

Work on those SAT scores and you should be good. Do what CBChris said and take them Jan senior year. If you take a course or study a lot they'll go up.

Good luck
