Hi, I’m wondering what my chances are for St. A’s. I’m thinking history/international relations, or something along that line. But before I submit I am wondering what my chances might be and if it is worth it.

SAT - 2170 superscored (2120 highest single sitting), I took it again in October 2014 so I’m waiting on those results
SAT II - 770 World History, 740 US History, English Lit (taking in November 2014)

GPA - 3.17 UW (I have gotten all A’s in all my history courses & language courses, but got some B’s in English classes in previous years, and some pretty bad math and science grades… but I had extenuating circumstances… had a parent pass away and it definitely affected me, HOWEVER, I have an upward trend in grades and had a pretty solid junior year and hopefully senior year is good as well).

But since St.A’s wants students with an “A-/B+” average I’m afraid this is where its going to hurt me.

AP - 5 Comparative Gov, 5 US History, 5 English Language, 4 US Government
Predicted AP scores - French 4, Macro 5, Micro 5, English Lit 5, Human Demography 5

How am I looking for the school?
