<p>alright, you are def on the right track to being a competitive applicant for these schools. imo, UNC is pretty much a match school for you, while the others depend on the strength of your essays and intervews. If you could get your SAT II scores above 750, it mght look even better to HYP, etc. good luck from another band person!</p>
