lol Hm...I did worse than you on SAT but I suck on test and I still got into UNLV. Anyways, I don't know what to say. Just go for it and see what happens. Most schools these days don't look at your scores too much. I had firends with 2.8 GPA's get into Cal Tech. lol. Good luck man.

i wrote on this topic for associated content i suggest you modify your educational approach and start with a community college of your choice. Then, when you have 60 units, TRANSFER over to any college in the US as an undergrad, upper division student. SLAM DUNK!
