What’s your recalculated GPA?
What do you mean? @sushipanda
ur gpa without classes like ceramics and basket weaving?
Is that weighted GPA based on how the UC’s weight GPA or UF?
Assuming it’s based on how UF weights GPA, it’s a bit low. However, UF will consider the rigor of your high school, and if you’re in the top 2.5% to 5%, that helps counter the GPA, a bit. You do want to shoot for a 1350 or better on your SAT, but test scores are not as important as GPA, course rigor, the essay (it’s important at UF, spend some time on it) and ECs.
Your EC’s look great for UF (especially the volunteer hours).

I agree with Gator88NE that your ECs look great but you GPA is a little low.
You list your Course Rigor as Strong but you have only taken 4 of the 23 AP courses you school offers, none of which are lab sciences or Calc. In state students that are aiming for UF tend to take a lot of AP classes to build their GPA and course rigor.
UF does not consider senior year grades but it does consider senior year course rigor. Hopefully you are taking a heavier load of AP/DE classes senior year, especially in the core academic
@Gator88NE @CaucAsianDad That weighted GPA is my overall accumulative weighted GPA. My freshman year I had like a 2.8 UW and 3.2 W Gpa but since then I’ve had 4.0 UW both semesters of sophomore year and first semester of junior year, and I had a 3.9 UW second semester of Junior year. I also had 4.4 weighted for both semesters of sophomore year and 4.6 weighted both semesters of Junior year (first semester took an unweighted class and second semester took a weighted one in its place). And yes my senior year schedule is strong, 4 AP’s (Gov, Econ, Stats, and Lit) and an honors (pre-calc honors) plus work-study!
@Gator88NE When I was at their tour the representative told us that they don’t consider class rank anymore, which I thought was strange. I’ve been meaning to call them to ask.
I heard the same thing, a few years ago during the admissions presentation/tour. However, it is listed in the common data set (that UF completes).
Even if it’s used, it’s not given a lot of weight.
What’s more important is your “course” rigor. Did you take the most rigorous courses available at your school. If you did, and have a high GPA, your ranking will also end up being fairly high.
You want to be in the top 10%, and at least in the top 25%. If not, you likely were not taking as rigorous a course load as your peers, or your GPA is a bit too low.

EDIT: Another way to look at class rankings. If you’re weighted GPA seems low compare to the middle 50% of admitted students (in the past), but your class ranking is high (say top 10%), then you excelled vs your peers and UF will likely be willing to take a bit lower GPA (especially with in-state students, where UF is very familiar with the high school).
