@Calvin689111‌ - Based on your chance-me posts, I assume that 3.82 is unweighted - you stated your weighted GPA is higher. Whether it is good enough will depend on the rigor of your coursework and the reputation of your high school. If it’s the result of a full slate of IB or AP classes at a top school, it’s going to be viewed differently than a 3.82 GPA without honors classes at a “normal” high school.

In your case, your SAT subject test and AP results are going to carry a lot of weight, and your ECs and awards seem to be strong, so I wouldn’t worry too much about the SAT scores. If you’re applying RD, try to get straight As this semester - that would definitely help your chances.
