<p>i think you most definately have what it takes. as long as you have a kick a** essay, you’ve got it most definately. dont be nervous! i’d suggest applying to some safety schools, just incase. ALL your programs look good. you have sooo many…the only way to make yourself better is to take and retake your SATs to ensure you have an amazing score. keep your first and second quarter grades up, but thats really all you can do now.</p>

<p>GOOD LUCK! :)</p>

<p>can you chance me back?

<p>A strong math SAT score will be very important for these programs. I would put serious focus on getting that score as high as possible.</p>

<p>Thanks alot guys! you really gave me some confidence! but i realized that i hate the sat and i was thinkin of focusing on the act…do you guys think thats a good idea?</p>

<p>GW is a match, but Brown is a reach because of your low SATs and lack of a hook. Drexel is a safety for you.</p>

<p>Chance back?
