I've got a good GPA, I volunteer, I've held a job working in a restaurant since I turned 16. I'm applying Early Decision to W&L and I've known that I want to go there since my dad forced me to look at it (because he went there). Basically, I have really great recs and (I think) a pretty good resume EXCEPT for my test scores, because I just don't do well in standardized tests. Is that going to completely kill my chances at admission? I mean, really. I want this so badly, I just feel that I didn't make the cut because of my test scores. Thoughts? ]]> aswagga-309404 http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/washington-lee-university/804508-chances-getting.html http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/washington-lee-university/803882-highlandmom.html Mon, 02 Nov 2009 22:06:12 GMT Just wanted to drop you a line, but your message box is full.
