<p>This is pretty much all I have as of the 3rd Quarter of my Junior Year. I can probably add some additonal things to my list by the time I apply to UVA. Again, any Feedback on my chances of admisson would be greatly appriciated. Sorry for any spelling or gramatical errors, i'm in a rush.</p>

<p>I would say that if you could raise your SAT score or provide other high standardized test scores, as an in-state applicant, you have a seriously good chance. I would call it a low match at best and a high match at worst.</p>

<p>You didn’t provide an UW GPA, so there’s no way to gauge accurately where you stand</p>

<p>Sorry, UW GPA is about a 3.9</p>
