Ive taken pretty much all APs and honors, have a 4.4 gpa, and im number 8 of 761 in my class. my test scores arent great, sat 1250, sat ii writing 600, sat ii math 1c 610, u.s. hist 720. i have really good ecs and i couldnt be in a sport because of a major chest surgery. i think my sat scores will kill my chances...any help please?!?!? im really scared...and also for northwestern and u. of virginia?

Reach: You might have difficulty getting into this school, but an excellent essay or recommendation could help if you really want to go to one of these. (Princetonreview.com)

The SAT scores may be a little too low for UCLA. Your grades are excellent, though.
