<p>So, I posted this on the general chances forum but no one responded. I would really, really appreciate your help.</p>

<p>Ok, here goes:</p>

<p>4.0 GPA
2nd in class of 270
6 or 7 APs (Still trying to decide on the 7th one…I really don’t want to take it - it’s US Gov and Politics…but do you really think one AP will make that much difference?)
Grades of 4 or 5 on all AP tests so far
35 on ACTs
2030 on SATs</p>

<p>Varsity swimming 2 years
Model UN 2 years
National Honors Society
Sunday School teacher (kindergarten) 4 years
Girl Scouts 4 years, working on gold award</p>

<p>But here’s the biggie - out of state, white female.
Do I have a good chance??? Thank you so much for your help.</p>

<p>What is the breakdown of your SAT score. Your SAT scores are below average for out-of-state and not inline with your grades or your ACT score. If you could improve anything I would recommend focusing on your SATs. 97% of applicants submit the SAT, for your information.</p>

<p>you’ll be competitive</p>

<p>Thanks so much for your replies. I know, my SATs are out of line with everything else, but for some reason i just found the ACT so much easier. I’ve heard some other people are like that too, so hopefully I’m not too weird :slight_smile: My SAT breakdown was 690 math and writing, 650 english. One other question: you said almost everyone submits the SATs, but do you think it would hurt my chances too much to just turn in the ACT score? Thanks again.</p>

<p>they can’t count it against you for submiting the ACT</p>

<p>if the school says they take it, then they take it… they don’t take it and then put your application on the bottom or the “weird ACT testers” pile =)</p>
