<p>If I forgot anything, then please tell me. I’m wondering what your thoughts are on this.</p>

<p>The schools I want to attend and apply for are (in no particular order):
-George Mason University
-Virginia Tech
-University of Virginia
-James Madison University
-University of Richmond
-College of William & Mary</p>

<p>Out of State Locations:
-California
-New York
-Boston</p>

<p><em>EDIT</em> The unweighted GPA is I think 99% right. The weighted, I am not sure. It may be 3.9 in reality. Might be converting it wrong. Thanks.</p>

<p>TTT^^^ Thanks for your feedback.</p>

<p>TTT^^^^^^ Che-che-che-check it out.</p>

<p>Um. Bumpage.</p>

<p>Drop it like it’s hot</p>

<p>My 2 cents:
George Mason University - Match
Virginia Tech - Match
University of Virginia - Reach
James Madison University - Match
University of Richmond - Reach
College of William & Mary - Reach</p>

<p>I think that the biggest things that will hurt you at the reach schools are your SAT’s and unweighted GPA. Also I’m pretty sure UVa and WM require 3 SAT II scores…might be something to look into.</p>

<p>Good luck</p>

<p>Thanks for your feedback man. I appreciate it a lot. Bumpage.</p>

<p>GMU-Match
VA Tech-Match
UVA-Far reach
JMU-Match
Richmond-reach
William & Mary- High Reach</p>

<p>I would try and retake SAT’s. Your long list of awards is not justified by solid scores.</p>

<p>OK, I’ve got my list of schools finalized so I would like to know what you guys think about these schools. (In no particular order)</p>

<ol>
<li>George Mason University</li>
<li>James Madison University</li>
<li>UVA at Wise</li>
<li>Roanoke College</li>
<li>Longwood University</li>
<li>University of Mary Washington</li>
<li>Virginia Tech</li>
</ol>

<p>I realize some of these schools have been answered but I would love feedback! Thanks.</p>

<p>lets play the bump game^</p>

<p>Holla back. Woot Woot.</p>

<p>Up and Up and merry go round</p>

<p>Down Down Down. You’re all I needed. On the way down.</p>
