<p>Sorry I have no idea about any of this.</p>

<p>I want to get ‘chanced’ up too. But these people never reply fast :smiley: </p>

<p>What is your uwGPA? Your course rigor is okay though not great. Your SAT score is around the admission average. UMich LSA is likely a low reach for you from OOS.</p>

<p>3.95</p>

<p>Pretty strong. Assuming other factors are neutral to your application, you should have at least a 50% chance. Best of luck!</p>

<p>@Tman1005‌ what other factors do you mean?</p>

7

<p>e@sf20122010 Well, to name a few: Teacher recommendation(s), time spent on ECs, race, grade trend, reputation of high school, and classes in your other years.</p>

<p>Your uwGPA is good. They do put more value on GPA and 21% of enrolled freshmen had 4.0 GPA from high school. But with SAT around admission average, it will still be a low reach for you from OOS. I don’t think the chance would be 50% as the overall admission rate was 32% while it would be lower for OOS.</p>
