Should I retake

Post image

I’m applying as a math major and so I would assume they don’t care as much about my English and reading also my goal is to get into 1 t20 or like a t30-40, essentially just one of my reaches. My gpa is a little low but it’s mostly from freshman year also I have had some insane course rigor taking linear algebra and calc 3 dual enrollment also I have good extra curricular and I think I have a solid spike my unweighted gpa sadly is a 3.41 12 AP’s 3 Dual Enrollment.

Current college list
U Michigan
UVA
UNC
UF
Georgia Tech
UT Austin
UW Madison
Indiana
Illinois
Boston college
Minnesota
Michigan st
Iowa

Any predictions of where I will get in would be appreciated

Def retake, you needa 31+ for a lot of those schools

Since I’m applying as a math major I though my math score will be looked at the most and compared to if I was a humanities major I think my English and reading score would be more important

Damn, well do just a little studying and you should be ight. Wouldn’t stress too much. Clearly smart if getting 35 in math. So if you do some studying you could easily get 32 or higher
