Honestly, I think you’ve got about as good of a chance as anything. Don’t stress about the 680. If you can, retake. If not, don’t sweat it. Remember, you’ve got a double legacy…which is a lot more than most people can say. And you know these top schools love legacies. But it’d be better if you spent that time composing an incredible essay - that would probably get you in more than a 730 in reading would. Besides, reading isn’t the easiest to improve…studying vocabulary, etc. takes a lot more time as well.
