<p>As long as your grades are improving, you should be fine. Dont mess up and get some EC going on if you can, but you shouldve started that a long time ago. And remember to count your core gpa only. They mostly look at that unless one of the electives are more academic.</p>
<p>thank you, but ASU says they dont look at EC's so Idk, but I'm just worried about the D's heres what they say about deficiencies, can someone interpret it to English lol? </p>
<p>Admission may be granted with one deficiency in no more than two competency areas. Deficiencies in both math and laboratory science are not acceptable. Students must earn a minimum 2.0 in any subject area. Most competencies may also be met by test scores or college courses. See Detailed Competency Requirements for more information.</p>
<p>ACT Science-20 (subject test score may not be from the same subject as either high school credit earned and may be used to satisfy only one laboratory science unit)</p>
<p>il give you some good advice, first of all, do well this coming year. Universities want to see improvement. If you buckle down and take this year seriously, try to get a 24+ on your ACT, you should be fine. remember though, you have to show the universities that your attitude has changed. Show them that You are no longer the same freshmen/softmore you were, and th ebest way of doing that is either through your essay, but most importantly, your grades. Good luck!</p>
<p>ASUhopeful, according to our general info session at ASU you need only to meet one of four criteria. Take that ACT again or hit the mark on the SAT. You probably don't have the class rank or the gpa so work really hard to get those grades up before school breaks for summer. Check their website for details for in-state.</p>
<p>ASUhopeful, I think the 3.4 this year will look good and you seem determined to improve your ACT score. I think you should be fine. Also, Utah and Utah State may be worth a look if you want to add some more schools to your list. Their tuition may be a little more for out of state, but it is not outrageous and their admission requirements are similar to the Arizona schools you are looking at. Best of luck!</p>
<p>According to the 2008-2009 application for ASU...it states for Arizona residents... Must be a high school graduate, meet class rank OR test score OR GPA. For in state; GPA is 3.0 (4.0=A) in competency courses....2.5-2.99 may be considered for admission. ACT composite score-22 (you need not have the essay portion...it is recommended but not required), SAT reasoning Math and Critical Reading combined score of 1040 (again writing not needed but it is optional), Class Rank- top 25% of hs graduating class...(applicants in the top 26-50 percent may be considered for admission.) </p>
<p>Further it states that you may have a maximum of one deficiency in no more than two competency areas provided that the areas are not both math and lab science OR in the same subject area.</p>
<p>Advice, hopefully your deficiences are not in the areas they state. Take the ACT plus writing and do well. Same for SAT...do a great job on the writing portion so the admissions commitee can see you are a viable candidate. Good luck!</p>
