<p>Your ACT scores are way too low. You should be aiming for at least a 32+. Legacy only goes so far. Your EC’s aren’t amazing, anything in specific about your experiences as a captain? How are your recs and essays looking?</p>

<p>Your ACT composite is several points below Yale’s 25th percentile score, so unless you are applying as a Division 1 Swimming or Water Polo recruit, I think your chances are pretty remote, even with the legacy status.
