You should definitely apply. College admissions are so random, there is no real point in not applying to a school that might be a bit of a reach.

anyone else? please?
PS- I forgot to mention that I also volunteer at Childern's Hospital in Oakland with a group called "Teens for Kids at Children's Hospital Oakland." We do many fundraisers and donate all of the money to the hospital.
