Should I plan on retaking?

Have about a 3.6 gpa, 3.4 or 3.3 science. Do trends matter in grades? Did poorly my first year and half and have pulled straight A's (except 1 B+) the last two years. Im a NY resident and would really like to go to NYU, Boston, or buffalo but also have a list of about 20 schools to apply to.

Solid scores! I don't think a retake is necessary unless you are shooting for ivy league schools. Good job! Now go enjoy the summer. 😀

yeah, trend matters. you and i are in same case.

I bombed first year of college and got straight As for 2 years, and this will be plus for us. anyways, can you post your topscore and achiever test scores?

I wouldn't retake- those are stellar scores! If you're worried about the 17.. isn't a 17 the national average? I think I read that on a school's website. No worries, I think you will do fine. 😀 Good job!

For Buffalo or NYU you should coast right in. They have very easy acceptance standards. The better schools in NY (i.e. Stonybrook,Columbia) will require higher scores to get in. Good job and just make sure that you get your application in early.
