<p>My parents and siblings tell me that UMich is a reach school right now for me; I honestly agree. My GPA is far too low, but will my SAT scores (both I and II) and extracurriculars help cover up for the low GPA?</p>

<p>Also, will UM look at my Senior Year First semester or First quarter grade? If they will, I am going to apply Regular Action.</p>

<p>Are you in-state or out of state?</p>

<p>I am out-of-state, and have been my whole life.</p>

<p>I think it’s possible if you write a compelling essay as a hook</p>

<p>Chance me back?</p>

<p>Well you’re overseas experience will definitely be an advantage. Your GPA is lower than average, but your SAT score is extremely good, and your course rigor is high as well. I don’t think you’ll get rejected but I think there’s like a 50% chance you’ll get deferred. All depends on how good your essay is. Chance me back!:)</p>
