chance me for regular decision to UGA

<p>I was deferred from early action. I have a 3.75 GPA and thats uga's calculation for gpa, 4 AP classes, 5 honors classes, 22 ACT, and 1390 SAT. I know really low test scores. My extra curricular activities include varsity football and golf for 3 years, FFA club member, student council member, and volunteer at local golf course. I also have worked an average of 22 hours per week at a local grocery store for the last two years during the off season of the sports I play. Does anyone know of someone that has gotten into UGA with the same resume and with such low test scores?</p>

<p>I think u got a shot. What’s your ACT English/writing and math. They mainly look at that. Also are you taking the ACT on Dec 10th. UGA superscores the ACT.</p>

<p>ALL 3 AREAS ARE A 22 AND MY SUPERSCORE IS A 22. i HAVE TOOK THE SAT 3 TIMES AND THE ACT TWICE. I’M GONNA TRY AND TAKE THE SAT ON JAN. 28 TH FOR A FINAL TIME. DO YOU KNOW OF ANYONE THAT HAS GOTTEN IN WITH LOW TEST SCORES?</p>

<p>Just so you know, by taking the SAT for a total of 4 times, your scores will become averaged together.</p>

<p>^ Not true. You can take a test as many times as you need, although having to take it four times doesn’t look that great anyway. I would retake the ACT instead. Your ACT score is much better.</p>

<p>Last year I applied during early action and got deferred, but got in regular decision. I, like you, had low test scores. I had a 21 ACT and 1100 SAT (M and CR). Just make sure you work really hard on the essays and make yourself stand out. Also make sure you get a good recommendation. Overall I think you have a shot. Your ec looks good and you seem pretty well rounded. Best of luck!</p>

<p>Thanks! I’ve been putting alot of time and effort into my essays. I also am getting my AP U.S history teacher to right my recommendation letter, she is a great teacher and I believe she knows me the best. Can you tell me what your GPA was and did you take alot of AP classes?</p>

<p>A 1390 SAT???</p>

<p>Are you sure more education is really right for you?</p>

<p>Do not let Rusty discourage you!</p>

<p>Make improving your SAT in January your main priority. Practice and study hard, and I’m sure you will see improvement.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
