Your GPA is a bit low but it should be fine for LSA from in state.
Thanks @billcsho Yes my GPA is low. However my grades are good in AP and Honor courses. I am hoping that my SAT and ACT scores will make up for that.
If your HS has typically low GPA, that should be fine. Nevertheless, UMich views GPA as one of the “most important” factor while test scores are just “important”. Anyway, if you get deferred from EA, you can improve your GPA from your first semester senior grades.
@billcsho Is there any advantages or disadvantages in reporting both my ACT and SAT scores? The application requires only one score.
Cost would be the only disadvantage. Otherwise I would submit both. They would look at the best section scores from both tests for your benefit even the composite scores are comparable.
