Chance me for 4 schools!

<p>My grades are very not stellar at all. :confused: Just a fair warning. I didn’t add them all though because that’s a long list, so I simply added the lowest grade. Math also is an Integrated program as Math itself isn’t offered as an IBMYP class nor IB Pre-Calc. Health also is not offered as an IBMYP class.</p>

<hr>

<p>Sorry that took so long, thanks for bearing with me. I also took the PSAT, but I don’t remember my score. Is there a way for me to request this information or would it be a total waste of my time to try and get again? Also, should I take SAT Subject Tests? If so, what would be ideal for my major/minor?</p>

<p>Columbia College Chicago has open admission so basically you’re in. Your stats are 75th%tile or better at the other 3, so you’re in there as well. I’d suggest throwing in a couple of reaches.</p>

<p>Can you suggest any reach schools? I’ve looked, but it’s hard to tell which schools really have good Creative Writing programs since it’s mostly all based on personal opinion. :/</p>

<p>I looked at a few more schools today. Can anybody chance me on:
School of the Art Institute of Chicago
University of Iowa
Corcoran College of Art and Design</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
