<p>Im sure this is exhaustively boring, but I would enjoy some consideration for my chances.</p>
<p>I have a 3.69 GPA. My highschool, however, does not weight gpa's and has a unique grading scale. An A- does not exist, a 90-93 in my school is deemed a B+, 84-89 B, 80-83 C+ and so on. If recalculated into UM, the bulk of my 90-93% B+'s become 3.0 b's, and so I approximate my UM GPA at roughly 3.2.
I have made this rediculous grading scale emphatically clear on my application. My highschool is ranked 156 in the nation.</p>
<p>17 total AP & honors courses (6 AP's)</p>
<p>2040 SAT, 720 math, 650 Verbal, 670 Writing</p>
<p>most impressive EC is technical director of a morning tv show...</p>
<p>applying LSA, oceanography</p>
<p>App completed by the 11th of october, OOS, white</p>
<p>if the gpa really is a 3.2, you're prollly gonna get deferred, and then will have to have high senior yr semester 1 grades to get in.</p>
<p>well see the problem is, with no consideration for percentages, its a 3.2. If Michigan actually rationalized percentages, and if my school had an A- grade, then i would have a 3.9. My average percentage for a class in highschool has been 92 with only final class grade below 90% (88% chemistry sophmore year)</p>
<p>Does Michigan accept many students from your school? In other words, is Michigan familiar with your school? Did you take any AP exams? Did you get mainlyy 5s and 4s? What is your class rank?</p>
<p>I have recieved a score of 4 for both of the ap tests that I have taken. My Guidance Counselor and College Counselor have both said that Michigan is familiar with my school.</p>
<p>My school does not consider class rank, but I tend to get the highest grades on tests in my AP classes.</p>
<p>Michigan accepts 4-6 students a year from my school; Roughly 12 students typically apply with GPAs between 3.4-3.9.</p>
