Is this for Fall 2018? Or are you still postponed from Fall 2017?
Conflicting info. 4 years… implies being a senior while taking SAT implies a junior. HS rankings make no difference- how well you perform within your school counts- you are expected to take advantage of opportunities available to you. This includes taking the most rigorous classes and doing well in them. Your test scores could use a boost.
It’s for fall of 2017
Your GPA seems incredibly inflated for someone with a 26 act. This implies that your “very competitive high school” isn’t preparing you well for college.
Additionally, all that extracurricular stuff doesn’t factor that much into the admissions process for a large state university. Raise your test scores.
I had a 3.9 weighted gpa, and a 32 act, and got in.
I’m sorry I mean to put the 5.77 out of 7 not 4
The weighted gpa is meaningless. UW only uses an unweighted one. The 3.7 is ordinary and the ACT on the lower side for UW admits. Remember that posted midrange scores/grades are the 25-75 percentile, 1/4 will be above and below that. You can improve your chances with better grades this semester and better test scores.
