MY Chances?

<p>Your GPA is doing fine, and you said you took a variety of AP courses, so that’s good. Your ECs look great as well.</p>

<p>I know the ACT a lot better than I do the SAT… so I found two conversion charts…</p>

<p><a href=“Page Not Found”>Unexpected error;

<p>[SAT-ACT</a> Conversion chart](<a href=“http://www.spartanburg6.k12.sc.us/dhs/Guidance%20website/SAT-ACT%20Conversion%20chart.html]SAT-ACT”>http://www.spartanburg6.k12.sc.us/dhs/Guidance%20website/SAT-ACT%20Conversion%20chart.html)</p>

<p>One of them says you got a score equivalent to a 22 and the other says about 25-26. The middle 50% of Carleton has ACT scores of 28-32. That would put you toward the low end of Carleton in terms of your SAT score. That can definitely hurt you; it will hurt you especially if you are in the state of MN and are caucasian. </p>

<p>Here’s a great site showing the average SAT and ACT scores of certain colleges:

<p>You want to be at or above the average for chances at admission. It does not report Carleton’s average ACT score, but it will show you a lot of other colleges. It’ll show you where your score can fit in.</p>
