So one AP. What math are you in?
Does your school offer more and you didn’t take or is that all they offer?
What’s good is U Delaware has a very high acceptance rate.
But Rigor is rated most important - and trying to get a sense of your rigor.
The SAT is a bit low - but within range.
49% have a 4.0.
21% have a 3.75 to 3.99.
and 21% below.
So your rigor worries me and I’d like to know more about that.
I think statistically you are in decent shape - but given they put the highest level on rigor, I’d want to know why the rigor wasn’t there - by choice or by unavailablity.
Still, I’d call it a match. But likely if the rigor answer comes back good.
Best of luck.
I took geometry, trigonometry, algebra, precalc, and statistics.
My school offers A LOT of AP’s, I just didn’t feel the need to take something like AP euro or APUSH when I have absolutely no interest in it, we mostly offer humanities AP’s, not science ones.
My friend last year did get in with only 3 honors classes and one of them was a C, he had a 3.57 gpa and 1180 SAT during RD.
My first honors was English in junior year, I got an A in it. Only grade that wasn’t an A in junior year was an A- in government relations (I’m a senior rn btw! And thank you for the reply :)!
Well statistically you’re in - and you almost don’t need to chance given what you just gave.
I don’t know if majors impact admission chances, etc. but by the #s reported, you’d have a decent chance.
But they do note rigor as most important - so it’s the only hiccup.
Good luck.
