<p>^ what are you, an admissions counselor? Or just some HS kid? I took 8 AP's and got 5's on most, had a 2130 SAT, got placed into LSP. But the OP's GPA was higher than mine...although her ACT is kinda low. I think she has a good shot personally for CAS, even RD
Good luck!</p>
<p>Yes.. I am "just some hs kid", but I was told that LSP is for kids who have really good stats, but are lacking in one area. (i.e.: Either low SATs or a low GPA). Lilyalta seems to have a well rounded resume. </p>
<p>Oh, and are you at LSP now, or are you a HS senior?</p>
<p>Yeah her resume is well-rounded, but her ACT is kinda low. Please don't tell someone they're "overqualified" and will definitely get in. I'm in LSP now, there are tons of students here who got 3.8UW + with lots of AP classes, and high SAT/ACT scores. Often those students were placed in LSP because they're Undeclared. Lilyalta didn't state her major, and being Undecided is often a reason to get placed into LSP. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if she got into CAS, and she should hardly expect to get rejected.</p>
