<p>I was just wondering what you guys think my chances at getting into UCF or UF are. I would also like to know if you guys think i should retake my ACT and SAT (i fell i should). If you do, can you please provide 1 or 2 prep. books that are very reliable for improving score.
Here are my stats:
GPA: 4.07 (weighted - calculated to Florida college weighting system)
SAT: 1670/2400 (600W, 540CR, 530M)
ACT: 24 (composite)
Clubs/activities: Mu Alpha Theta (math club-nationally renown), JV baseball, 150 volunteer hours, engineering club, and Spanish club</p>
<p>I have taken many college classes, and for my entire senior year i will be dual enrolled at the local state college. I am a Florida resident, and i am aiming for UF. However, i will most likely attend UCF for two years, and transfer to UF for the remaining two. That is unless i get accepted to UF for my freshman year of college. Also i am not limited to those two college, and i am open to any ideas for colleges in Florida (not Uni. of Miami though, its a private school) </p>
<p>I think you have a shot at UCF, your scores and EC’s match well for them. UF might be a bit of a reach with that somewhat low standardized test scores.</p>
<p>I’m from Florida also! So I have a pretty good idea of these schools’ requirements offhand… I’d say you’ve got a great shot at getting into UCF and USF, and probably FSU as well… but Florida is probably a bit of a stretch given your SAT scores.</p>
<p>Nonetheless… If you haven’t already, try and visit all of these schools. I knew a lot of people who got into each of UCF, USF, and FSU and had to choose from those three. But people made different decisions! It seems as though these schools are roughly equal in the eyes of my peers, so then it was just about what felt right for them. Out of those three, my personal order would probably be FSU, UCF, then USF, but that’s just me. Good luck in making your choice! : )</p>
<p>And I got deferred by all of your schools (haven’t heard from UF yet), and Emory University. Every single damn college (top, safety, and match) I applied to deffered me. No rejects, no acceptances. I got like 6 colleges hanging in mid air right now with deferrals. I think I failed in picking my safeties, matches, and reaches.</p>
