<p>UVA or Bust, I am a rising first year and I got in with an ACT score of 30 (and I’m from a public school), it’s not the end fo the world, calm down a little. Your score probably won’t go all too much higher, but a 31 can still get you in. Ignore the SAT and ACT for now, focus on side things that will make you stand out SAT IIs other tests, work on your essays and maybe make an Art portfolio if you think you are good at art. </p>
<p>Also I think you are a little too set on going to UVA, which isn’t necessarily bad, but you really need to find other schools that are similar, maybe Wake Forest or BC. Try to broaden your search and you will end up somewhere that will make you happy</p>
