<p>Thanks for the answers everyone! It was a great surprise to come home from work and find all these great answers to my question!</p>
<p>@Dean J Your answers helped a lot! Thank you! I’m scared now, however. Even though my high school GPA was a 3.8, my SAT score was a 1570 superscored (M:440, CR:620, W:510). That’s why I didn’t get into Maryland and Penn State-University Park (I was accepted into their Altoona campus, however.). Also, I took honors and college-prep courses, but no AP courses. Will I need to retake the SAT to be competitive? Also, I will try to maintain a 3.5+ GPA since that is the prerequisite to stay in the honors program, which I’m in.</p>
