<p>I think you are in the wrong forum.</p>

<p>Darlin, the schools you list just can’t happen wth your scores. Lok at the many great schools that you can get into.</p>

<p>There is nothing wrong with taking a shot, but you ABSOLUTELY need to add some more realistic choices to your list. </p>

<p>Try looking at: Indiana U, Arizona State, U of Denver, Bryant, Bentley, Babson, American, Elon, DePaul, Southern Methodist U, U of Oregon, U of Washington, Boston U, Franklin & Marshall, U of Wisconsin, Villanova, Santa Clara U, U of San Diego, San Diego State, Ithaca College, Rollins and Stetson as start to lining up some safer bets. </p>

<p>Again, I’m not saying you shouldn’t give the high reaches on your list a shot, but smart planners always have a SOLID back up plan. Best of luck!</p>

<p>You are on the worng forum. Parents don’t usually rate chances. However, your list does not match your SAT scores. You must re-take the SAT until you get higher scores.
SUGGESTIONS:

  • Sign up for a course on the SAT
    *Buy or borrow the offical SAT study guides and practice tests and do them–until you get much much higher scores.
    *Look up Xiggi’s SAT tips on this website and put them into practice.</p>

<p>It can be done!</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
