I can assure you that students with 1500+ SATs and unweighted 4.0 GPAs are thick on the ground at W&M. There are also students with lower stats.

My thoughts:

1. It looks as if your first time taking the SAT does not truly represent your academic attainments. Did you prepare for the test by taking practice tests? How did you score on them? Do you think you just had a bad test day? You should also consider taking an ACT practice test to see if that's a better test for you.

2. Pre-med is a tough course of study at any school because of the level of competition. There are always "weed-out" classes that are notoriously challenging.

3. Please don't focus on any one college. The admissions process is nuts. Make sure you have plenty of "safety" schools that you would be happy attending. People will continually ask you about your top choice or dream school. Be firm with them about not having one! The country is full of great colleges.

Good luck!
