<p>Hi</p>

I interned with a judge last summer, and he wrote me an AMAZING rec letter
I just got a job working at the front desk of NYSC, and I've been babysitting for years</p>

<p>I've read all my recs (shhhh ;) ) and they were really good! I think my essays were really good also.</p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>Your chances are very good.</p>

<p>oh my god. politicians give the BEST rec letters!</p>

<p>Really, ctyankee? I hope so! Thanks!</p>

<p>And haha yeah the letter was great. The judge was a friend of my dads so he really gassed it up! :P</p>

<p>The current incoming class had an average weighted GPA of 3.93 weighted.
So you’re below average grade wise, but everything else looks fine.</p>

6

<p>Yeah, my grades seem to be my weak point for most of the schools I’m applying to, but thanks!</p>

7

<p>Anyone else? <em>bump</em></p>

8

<p>You have a low gpa, but for UMD it’s not going to matter. You’re in.</p>

9

<p>You think so? I hope! It seems like years since I’ve submitted the app already, I just want to find out!</p>

10

<p>(Got in, by the way :slight_smile: )</p>

<p>yay congrats!</p>

<p>i might as well hijack this thread. i’m out of state too, so it’s really not hijacking since the title still applies to me. but i digress…</p>

<p>i’m an out of state transfer student. 3.6 gpa, aerospace engineering major, member of phi theta kappa, 0 efc on fafsa, will have my AA. any thoughts?</p>
