Need Some Advice!

160/3.6...I've read a lot of opinions on here and I'm sure there's going to be a lot of people in favor of a retake, but its really an option I'm trying to avoid. I'm disappointed SCU didn't offer more, as their IP program looks great, but negotiations haven't gotten me anywhere yet. Thanks a lot everyone.

Honestly, your numbers look like you could be doing better than where you've applied.
I have the same numbers and I am looking at high 1st/ low 2nd tier schools. Gotten into San Diego (with $$$) and SMU with the same stats. Any particular reason you've chosen these schools?

Well I'm still waiting for a few replies, but I was WL'd at American, Temple, and Northeastern, and rejected at GWU. Looking at my numbers I was disappointed too, but I have a feeling it had to do with how late in the cycle I applied (mid-Jan.).

With your numbers I would say retake and wait a year, you should be able to significantly better than these options.

What's with the World tour of TTTs? Do you not care where you wind up practicing? Or do you think that any of these dumps will allow you to practice anywhere you like after you graduate?
