<p>Sorry, but your SAT’s are very questionable. Your EC’s are fair. You have to lose the who’s who–that looks really cheap IMO. Sorry, unless those SAT’s come up and there is something more that shakes up your profile, I’d say no, and again sorry, but I’d say no to most of your school choices too. There’s no sparkle, or interest generated on my part. Sad, but true.
You are young though, and have time for improvement.</p>

<p>SATs:got to increase those! I don’t see any of the colleges as a match for u! sorry, but just focus on SAT and ECs…u shud be a lot better candidate! Good Luck! :wink:
I never saw someone saying their username! that was interesting!</p>

<p>Do I need to be involved in more ECs? I’m taking an SAT review course w/ Princeton Review so I am expecting my scores to go up.</p>

<p>I think your EC’s are solid, but definitely not unique. Work on that part, if you can. If not, just continue to show commitment to the ones you have, and you should be fine.</p>

<p>Op has only completed sophomore year. SAT’s should rise.</p>
