What colleges do you consider good??? A lot of schools could be test optional next year, and so your in-state public is probably a safe bet... and they have decent programsl...

Yes, you can get into many excellent schools with a 3.5 GPA, mostly big state schools and large private ones.

For example, Syracuse, U of Oregon, some UC schools, U of Arizona, some UT schools, U of Alabama, U of Florida, Penn State, U Pitt, U Mass, SUNY schools, Ohio State, Indiana U, if you get my picture.

Just don't report your SAT test scores.

They are all going to be test-optional again next year.
