<p>In, definitely. Not sure about scholarships or Honors though.</p>

<p>I would retake your SAT because your math is a little low. Other than that you have a good chance.</p>

<p>Several girls I know with good stats such as yours and a 500-ish SAT Math were offered spring admission, so I agree it would be worth trying to get that score up if fall admission is important to you.</p>

<p>You’ll probably get in, but it’s kind of a crap shoot. This year some very intelligent kids who did very well on their SATs got offered spring admission/were declined acceptance, and some got in… so it’s really random. But if you raise your math SAT, you’ve got a very good chance at admission.</p>

<p>Suggestion for the Math SAT. Find a math geek to help you, and take one of the practice math sections from a prep manual. Go back through each math problem you miss with your math-geek friend and have them explain it step by step. D2 was able to get a nice jump this way (thanks to help from her math geek sister). Her sister then picked out similar-type questions on a couple of other practice math tests to make sure that she got the concepts; or of course you could always retake entire add’l practice math tests and repeat the process. Good luck.</p>
