<p>You need the base of the cake (core stuff like SAT/ACT and GPA) before the icing (EC volunteering)
thankfully your base is not that bad and as you said your EC are amaxing, use them to your advantage by showing u are really uniqyue and letting the admissions committe jknow u have more than just academics to offer to their schools.</p>

<p>Thanks, I’m working on getting my SAT up too</p>

<p>Anyone else?</p>

<p>Awesome ECs and pretty good results as well, if you can get that SAT score up by just a bit, I would say all your schools are matches. </p>

<p>Please chance me back <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1530189-my-chances-getting-into-rice-university.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1530189-my-chances-getting-into-rice-university.html&lt;/a&gt; :)</p>

<p>I would advise you to make your SAT and GPA a priority; your ECs are arguably enough to make up for your lower scores/academics but it can’t hurt to work on those areas.</p>

<p>I’d say you’re definitely in at pretty much everywhere except maybe UVA and William and Mary. Those I would consider high matches.</p>

<p>Anyone else?</p>

<p>For any schools that you are within their admission stat ballpark, you would have a great chance. You do have a few like that on the list. However, EC can be easily overlooked during the initial screening process if the GPA and scores are below their threshold.</p>

9

<p>all are matches or low reaches
the gpa and AP scores are a weak point
but your extracurriculars show dedication and leadership, so you should reasonably be able to get into any of those schools with quality essays/grade improvement next year</p>

<p>My only concern would be the AP scores.</p>

11

<p>Don’t worry. AP scores have minimal impact on admission, at least for the schools on your list. You only need to self report them on applications.</p>

<p>By the time I apply to college I will hopefully have a 3.9 cumulative</p>
