<p>Your SAT may be on the low side, but your extracurriculars are stellar, your rank isn’t bad, you have a fairly demanding courseload, and your SAT II’s are good as well. Contrary to popular belief, SAT’s really aren’t the primary factor in admissions. And considering you want to be a liberal arts major, it’s likely they didn’t put much weight on your low math score.</p>
<p>That being said, you will likely never know exactly why ND accepted you.
My sense is that there is rarely one single reason; admissions is a holistic process, after all.</p>
<p>One of the terms for what you’re feeling right now “impostor syndrome,” i.e. asking yourself: “I don’t belong here, how did I ever get in, etc.” My advice is stop thinking that right now. Once you walk onto campus, high school doesn’t really matter. It’s an entirely new start; make the best of it.</p>
