<p>u have a shot
write an outstanding essay, get great recs, and good luck :)</p>

<p>What is your unweighted GPA? That’s usually very important, as is our courseload.</p>

<p>unweighted is a 3.83 i take all the aps my school offers except for the math track (if you notice my SAT scores you’ll get why haha)</p>

<p>rem, you have a shot at all of them, even USC and Vandy, especially if you get the ACT/SAT up some more. I think the 3.83 uw is pretty solid. Just surprised that it doesn’t weight up greater than 4.0? your recs and awards are great too. Good luck.</p>
