<p>anyways how are my chances looking? Im instate Korean male btw</p>

<p>You have a lot of things going for you! Great SAT's, in-state status, and obvious strengths in math and science. Your GPA is somewhat low compared to the average UVA acceptance but strong essays and SAT II's should help compensate...good luck to you!</p>

<p>thank you!</p>

<p>also another thing to no is that my grading scale is really hard with an A starting at 94, Bplus 90-94 and B 84-90</p>

<p>anyone else mind chancing?</p>

<p>Upward trend in GPA with each year. Great SAT's. Rigorous course load. Great EC's (according to you).
In state status.
I say you are in. Hope I'm right!</p>

<p>Medlove, do you know your weighted gpa? That would give us a better understanding of your chances.</p>

<p>Some schools weight honors and all weight AP. Your situation may be better than it appears right now w u/w stats.</p>

<p>Thanks for the chances, i hope your right also powderpuff!
Im not exactly sure my weighted but for comparison about 35 -40 people from my school get in every year to UVA and the mean unweighted gpa is 3.6-3.7 and mean SAT is 2130.</p>

<p>Any other opinions? And I would also like to know have Premed at UVA compares to Premed at W&M. I hear that W&M has a significantly higher acceptance rate to med school.</p>

<p>Thanks for any comments in advanced!</p>

<p>Medlove are you in Nova?</p>

<p>I don't know a lot about pre med but I think I read W&M has a 75% (I'm approximating) med school acceptance rate. My best friends bro went to W&M for that reason.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>Yes vistany, I am from NoVa</p>

<p>Thanks for the comment!</p>

<p>bump, any other comments?</p>
