You want to look at each school in the context of their scores. You can look at the Common Data Set Section C9 for each school. Just google the school + common data set and you’ll find it.
So you can see two things. Colgate, for example, has a 25th percentile of 31 on the composite and a 75th percentile of 34. So 32 puts you in the middle of that which is fine. But you can also see what percentage actually submitted a test. At Colgate, only 53% - the others were TO (and it might be more as some kids might submit both). Colgate had 30% submit SAT and 23% submit ACT. Now this data is a year old - so when it comes out for the most recent class it might be higher - but it’s a guide. You can look at the school’s first year profile too that they publish - they’ll often show the % that were TO.
So a 32 is very solid - not sure why you say low. Combine with first gen, low income, Afro Latina…it’s likely an asset for every school on your list - but again, your list is still too reach heavy with some schools that won’t be concerned with your financial situation.
Great job but I worry when someone says they have a low test and it’s at the 97th percentile…I mean, that’s not low!!! For anyone!!! The expectations today are super high…way way way too high!!
