<p>Based solely on GPA right now, am I on the right path to get into UNC Chapel Hill out of state?
First of all, I know that GPA is only one determining factor in college admission, but just assume that my extracurriculars and SAT scores correlate closely with my GPA (i.e. no one factor has a significant advantage/disadvantage to my admission) b/c my extracurriculars do and my PSAT scores almost do, but after studying this upcoming summer, I think I'll be able to get in the 2000+ range on the actual SAT</p>
<p>Honors lit- 97.12%, 104.12% weighted
AP environmental science- 95.55%, 102.55% weighted
Honors Precal- 91.98%, 98.98% weighted
Honors Chem- 98.49%, 105.49% weighted
AP world history- 92.75%, 99.75% weighted
Honors Spanish- 94.74%, 101.74% weighted</p>
<p>unweighted avg-- 95.11%, weighted avg-- 102.11%</p>
<p>These are my semester 1 sophomore grades... I have my freshman ones too somewhere in my house, but am too lazy to find them. I know that I am only a sophomore, but assuming that I take tons of APs and maintain my work ethic, then what are my chances?</p>
<p>Yes - you are on the right path, however you should not take as many APs as you think you should. College cares WAY more if you get an A in an honors class than a B in an AP - trust me. Your unweighted GPA is a vital factor in your admission decision</p>
<p>You’re definitely on the right path. 
But … are you in/out of state? If you get a 2000+ on the SAT and maintain your current grades, you’ll be fine. I’m a North Carolinian with 6+ alumni relatives, and many of my friends are attending Chapel Hill/will attend. It’s a great school, and I know quite a bit about it.</p>
<p>i’m out of state, from GA. Since you know so much about the school, do you have any recommendations for specific clubs/positions/extracurricular that they typically look for</p>

<p>Sorry this is not true for an OOS applicant. OOS stats have to be MUCH higher than those for instate students.</p>
<p>For example: my neice had a similar GPA (over 4.0) and 2200+ SAT two years ago, applied EA, was deferred, then waitlisted, then never got off the waitlist. Now a sophomore at Clemson.</p>
<p>I have to politely disagree. My brother’s room-mate at UNC received grades of around a 3.7 GPA, and had a 2000+ SAT scores - he was coming from Texas. I mean, that’s just an example. College admissions everywhere are complicated. There are many more facets to them than GPA and SAT scores. </p>
<p>My dad also went to UNC Chapel Hill from Michigan with a GPA lower than a 4.0. (not entirely sure of his stats).</p>
<p>sugarandspice25, make sure to get involved with extracurriculars, and keep grades & SAT scores. If you do all that, you should have a fairly good chance of admittance.</p>
<p>bump a third!! tehe</p>
